DANIEL OWEN FITZPATRICK
8-02-70 - 6-26-99
Daniel had a twin sister. He was a wonderful son and brother. Daniel had many friends, which included the homeless, who he fed. He also took care of many of the elderly people in our area.

Daniel was a gifted person in art, music, gardening and track. He loved the outdoors.

Daniel had handsome green eyes, was 6 feet tall, but shy.

Daniel went into depression of the spring of 1999 due to the death of his dad. He did seek out many doctors, etc. but ended his own life on June 25th of that year. He was revived and then declared brain dead on June 26th. Upon his death, we gave permission for his organs to be donated in order to help others.

On Daniel's Memorial Card was this verse from the Prayer of St Francis:

For it is in giving that we receive,
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
In dying that we are born to Eternal Life.
