This Senior Feature is all about Daniel!
Danny is a Senior at Rockford High school and graduated tonight!
Danny’s friends and family describe him at funny, outgoing, incredibly nice and always willing to help someone in need!
He is so much fun to be around! He's easy-going and always happy to have a conversation about anything. He's also very driven to serve his country as a Marine, specifically in reconnaissance, and has been working very hard for a year to be as prepared as possible for when he ships out June 9th.
He spends his time hanging out with his friends and preparing for the Marines (swimming, running, lifting, and training with the local Marine Poolee group). Other activities over the years include lifeguarding at the Blythefield Pool for three summers and working as a waiter this summerand fall. He tried a season of wrestling, a season of crew, and finished his 1st triathlon! He and his best friends have gone on two backpacking trips to the Smokey Mountains on their own!
