A man of great FAITH filled with the HOLY SPIRIT. He lived it out his Faith for all to see. Daniel walked fearless in illness. Rejoiced in knowing His ABBA awaited him in Heaven. Daniel looked forward to Rejoicing for Eternity in the Presence of HIS LORD JESUS.
Who can forget Daniel, just a freshmen at Pan American University when I met him. Highly motivated and dedicated future soldier. May you rest in peace and soldier on in heaven. LTC (R) Luis Barrera PAU 89.
