The Morris Theater won't be the same. He was a faithful employee.
I guess I've know Danny my entire life, I honestly don't remember him not being at the Morris Theatre when I went to see movies as a child, he was a fixture there. I always liked Danny and will miss seeing him when I take my kids to the movies. RIP Danny.
RIP…won't be the same without you!
God bless you for watching over all the kids whose parents trusted you with for decades. You are irreplaceable and will be dearly missed!!
Thank you Danny for taking my groceries to my car in the 60's at Piggly Wiggly , to taking my money at Morris Theatre… You will be missed so much and I remember you with fond memories. RIP dear friend.
Rest in Peace Mr.Danny. It won't be the same at the theatre without you.
Going to the show will never be the same! He always wore a smile and made you feel like he had known you forever! Going to miss you lots!
RIP Danny. You will be missed. Going to the Daingerfield theater will not be the same without you there.
It just won't be the same not seeing your smiling face and hearing you making your jokes as we walk thru the door at the theater. Now go rest on high and enjoy your peace now. . Know that you will be missed Danny.
Rest in Peace Danny and it won't be the same without you anymore coming inside Brookshires with that smiling face and it definitely won't be the same going to the movies without you taking up the tickets and you'll be truly missed
Rest in peace, Danny. Daingerfield won't be the same without you.
RIP Danny. The theatre certainly won't be the same without you there.God Bless…Prayers for your friends and family.
Will miss you uncle Danny. It will be different not to see you at the movics. Love you.
Rest in peace Uncle Danny you will never be forgotten
Danny will be missed termendously , he was very a much a part of the community as well as the Morris Twin. Rest in peace Danny.
Danny and I shared a many of our lifetime experiences over the past thirteen years. He was a father, friend and confidant to my two grandsons, Christopher and Brandon Moffett. Danny took these boys and provided for them like they were his very own and I, as their grandmother, can never express my gratitude and appreciation for his ever loving kindness. Danny had a heart of gold and I will miss his hour long telephone conversations three to four times a week. We were both lonely and needed a lifeline of support after the death of my grandson's mother, Janet Moffett Elias. Rest in peace Danny as you are in the arms of Jesus now. We will miss you and your friendship will be with me forever!Vern & Barbara Williams

Well I didn't know Danny personally but he was always the ticket taker at the show and I have been going to that show for 45 years , it want be the same with out Danny sitting there he always had something funny to say if he had the time and was always watchful over the kids to make sure they behaved when the parents weren't around. I was glad he told me my child never gave him any problems and even a few times he let me in for free….sorry Walter , he will be missed. D.F.
Danny, how I wish you could read all these beautiful and loving memories from your friends and family. You will indeed be missed. Can't imagine going to the theater and not seeing you there. Rest peacefully friend.
Danny worked for my parents, E G Jr. and Olliedyne McMillan, at the Piggly Wiggly stores in Daingerfield and Hughes Springs. He was a good worker and loyal, and my parents depended upon him to "get the job done" and be available when needed. I don't recall when Danny started to work for my parents, but it seemed he was one of those "forever" employees. He was always in a good mood and wore a smile, and was courteous and kind to people. In my parents last years, he always asked about them and visited them on many occasions. Danny was not just an employee of the McMillans, he was also a friend. R.I.P Danny.E G (Sonny) McMillan III
I remember you as a produce manager for Vineyards in Jefferson Texas I know most will have known you from the movie theater in Daingerfield you was an onary cuss an a lil nosey but I liked you I am sure most did Rest in God's arms now goodbye old friend Linda Costello
So sad to hear this news. He may have just been the ticket taker at the movies, but that was such a big part of my teenage life! And then my kids got to grow up with him, too. We were blessed 🙂
You will be missed dearly. I can remember you being at the theater since I was a young teen. You would tease me back then cause I was so little. RIP
