To Joanne and whanau, So sorry for your loss. Daniel sounded like an amazing young guy. Gina
I am the ex owner of The Nag N Noggin where Dan use to spend time with us. I wanted to reach out and let you know how incredibly fond all the staff were of him. We all had to look up to him and then he would always smile and say hello and ask us how we were. He had a warmth about him and was very easy going. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful young man with us. With our deepest sympathies, Maxine and the team that were at the Nag.
