Bitter Sweet / Cassandra Hyatt (sister) Danny today is Independence day. A day that reminds us why you are not here. But is also a day to celebrate being an American. Something you did when you served in the Navy for 4 years. You believed fighting for our freedom. You believed being free, and supported everything about what gave us our Independence. Danny I seen someone today coming out of the radio station that could have been you. It was your favorit radio station. The one on the Mall. It was kind of weird, as if you walked out of the building and then disappeared behind a brick building as if you didn't want me to see you. Then I was you again for another sec and then you disappeared again. Maybe you were just letting me know that you are indeed still with us and you are a part of our life. It has almost been 2 years. I wonder what you life would be like if your life on earth didnt end. would be you married? or at least had the thought of it? Would you have the house in Scammon you had you eye on? Would you be going to school? Danny I want you to know that you are very missed. You will always be my brother and I will always love you. It is very hard right now sitting inside my house listening to the fire works go off around the house.
Miss you so much Danny, Be with us tonight. Cassandra
Just wanted you to know / Rosemary Sis Of Alvin Cremeans I was posting my 4th of July tributes today and I came upon your site and I stopped in my tracks as I realized the tragic way Danny passed. And I felt a 4th of July graphic was surely not what you need on this day. Instead I am sure you need to know that during all the celebrations that people remember Danny and his friends and so I want you to know that I am thinking of you Cassandra and your family and Danny's friends. My heart is heavy for your loss. It breaks my heart to think of the pain that the loss of your brother has caused you. I lost my brother also and it's the hardest thing yet in this life that I have had to endure and I have been through alot. Anyhow you are in always in my thoughts and prayers but especially on a day that has to be a very painful reminder of such a tragic loss. God bless you and your family. Take care. Rosemary sis of Alvin Cremeans xoxo

Easter Morn
Easter morn with lilies fair
Fills the church with perfumes rare,
As their clouds of incense rise,
Sweetest offerings to the skies.
Stately lilies pure and white
Flooding darkness with their light,
Bloom and sorrow drifts away,
On this holy hallow'd day.
Easter Lilies bending low
in the golden afterglow,
Bear a message from the sod
To the heavenly towers of God

God Bless Your Family & Friends, Sue, Ashley’s Mom

HAPPY HOLIDAYS / Nancy Davis
Sitting here, think of you / Cassandra Hyatt (Sister) Dearest Danny, I am sitting here at my desk and thinking of you and how life has changed 100% for me since Aug 18. 2005. Things in my everyday life are different. My family is different. You were any in the Navy, giving so much of your self for 4 years. Then one day. that was it. How can someone love someone and then lose that person not have a life change? How can they live as if nothing every happened? and then make other peoples life a terrible mess just because they feel like it. Do they feel this is what you would want?? How on earth, how in Heaven could this be what you want? I know you are not hear to answer these questions that I seek answers for. And that I can only guess this would angry you. Danny if I could have one wish, and if you could pull some strings you would end it. I know you have your way of still talking to us, through dreams and other ways, send a message out, I know the only way to see you again is to live a good life. That thought comes to my mind everyday. This message is for you Danny and I know you know what to do with it. I love you and Miss you Dearly, My brother, when you left you took a part of me with you Love, Cassandra
Dream last night / Cassandra Hyatt (Sister to Danny Groves ) Danny, awaken by the alarm this morning (to make sure Cody was up to get ready for school) First thought was of the dream I had last night, Knowing you came to me once again in such a short period of time was wonderful. I can only remember bits and pieces of it, but I do know you were there. Thank you Danny. Maybe you are trying to tell me something. "What about my rock Garden?"
Danny I was also going through the pictures I took of Lacies wedding and I noticed a rainbow in only two of the pictures.
I know they were you. Rainbow is very fitting also, Sending us Luck, Sending Lacie Luck on her wedding, and the rest of us Luck for other reasons.
It was the two photos of Tammie, Wayne, Anthony, and lil man Avery. How fitting is that!!
Danny I really miss you. I miss you being at family events. We will keep having them, but they will never be the same without you. I really hope you DO know what a wonderful man you were, how special you were to us, and how much we all loved you.
I wonder sometimes how one could not be effected by our loss. Or go on with life as if it never happened. I wonder how someone can not lose sleep over what happened to you.
I know that everyone deals with a loss differently and everyone heals in their own way. But sometimes I just dont get it.
I know it effects all who love you, Please be there for those that are in pain over this. One of your best buds ( without saying who they are, I know you know) really deeply misses you. He thought the world of you Danny. I know he would have done anything for you. Please be with him Danny, let him know that you are ok.
Please watch over Dusty Danny, along with Mickey, Gary, Christy, Dave, Tyler, and Zeplin. We are all proud of him, but we are scared for him. We know that what he is doing is needed. and he is happy with doing. but you know what it is like for you have been there before. Serving 4 years on the Kitty Hawk.
Love you Danny. I really miss my brother. One day I will see you again.
Your Sister Cassandra
Last night / Cassandra Hyatt (Sister)
Danny Last night your baby sister got married. I know you were there watching over her on her special day. Tammie and I were talking and I know you would agree, the look of love Brennen had on his face for your baby sister was enough for us to know, that he loves her with all his heart. That was wonderful to see. I know you will watch over her and Brennen for they have started a new life together. They are no longer Brennen Collins and Lacie Groves, they are now Lacie and Brennen Collins. Mr. and Mrs. Brennen Collins.
I hope the best for them and so does the rest of her family. We only want the best for them,
Lacie had a beautiful wedding Danny. You had your special place at the Dinner table to share this special day with her and the rest of us.
You were thought of and missed, just like everything that happens, even though are you not here, you are still with us,
Also would like to add, that the Bride, Maid of Honor, Two Brides Maids were absolutely beautiful. Special note that Sissy (Lacies Step mother whom has done a lot for Lacie) did their hair. I want to thank her for giving up her day to do the girls hair and nails.
one last note.....( for the most part your family ( Groves ) was well behaved.even though feelings could have over powered us.... I know you know what this means)
Last Night / Cassandra Hyatt (Sister) Danny last night I had a dream of you. I dont know which field it took place on. I dont if it was a local high school football field, one from out past or the actual Chiefs football field. However it as after the game was over I walked up to a woman selling Chief footballs and items like that. I was telling her about you and about wanting to buy you a football because how much you loved their team. She said, "Oh yeah he already bought one" I continue to talk and was surprised that she knew who you were and that she rememebered you, Knowing that they see a lot of people daily. She was saying that you bought one before you died. Like she remembered the date you were there and everything. You must have made a great impression on her. She was talking about you like you were their biggest fan, and that she was sorry your life ended the way it did, but we were both happy that you were able to talk to the team and buy your football before it was your time to go. Thank you Danny for that gift,
I want you to know I have been working on your pond trying to get it ready for you. I keep it inm my head of how I want it to look, ideas, it has changed a few times. It didnt get done by your 1 year mark, but I want it to be right. My latest project on it was getting the pipes baried so I can have water and eletric near the area. I almost have the all the dirt back over the hole. I hurt my toe 2 nights ago so it might slow down the process, I think I broke it, it is purple, and the purple is spreading,,, and it hurts when I move it, so needless to say, I have not been moving it..... But it sure did hurt when it happened...... OMG,,,, ouch...
Next weekend I will be going out to see you Danny, along with a very dear friend of mine, One I was friends with in Grade School, We will also be visiting her baby girl.
You know we would have another lil one around this time if I wouldnt have had my miscarriage back on New Years Eve, But with all the things I was going through, just losing you, things with someone else, me being really sick,, my body just couldnt hang on to the lil one.
That was a very bad day. I really wanted the baby... But I know she or he is up there with you. I know you will take care of my baby until I can come home to my lil one. Please teach my lil one things Danny, Maybe this was your way of having a baby. I didnt think of that until just now. You would have been a good father Danny, and now you can be.
Danny I know I dont sign something on your site very often any more. I wont say the reason why, for you know. But when Im out working in my back yard, It brings me close to you. because this is going to be your pond. I already bought about 18 fish or more. 7 died on August 18. 2 died the day before. But the rest are doing very well. They will now come up to me in their little group when it is feeding time. One day one of them was jumping out of the water wanting me to know it was there.
I really miss you Danny. But I know you are still with us. You interact with us all in your own way. Might be a breeze, might be a feather, might be a dream, or several other ways, but I know you are still with us. I hope you are able to rest in peace, and dont have any unfinished business that needs attending too.
I love you Danny, My brother. Cassandra
Garden/ Cassandra Hyatt (Sister) Dearest Danny, I finally started your Garden in the back yard. I have started the pond area that is almost in the center of the 4 trees I planted a few months ago. The pond is in its rough stages right now. I am not sure how big I want it. Right now I have two holes with a stream in the center connecting them. I will have some sort of waterfall. I ordered and have received two solar powered fountains which I will have on both sides. Once I get a little more I will take a Picture and have it added to your web-site.
Tonight you will be on KOAM tv Danny. Most of the information I sent them came from what Tom read at your Funeral. All of the information needed except your rank was there.
I want to send a Special Thanks to Barnie who started this request to have you added. I received an e-mail from Koam TV letting me know Barnie wanted to Submit you but they needed information.
I have sent the link to those I thought would like to view it, those that are close to you. I have asked for permission to add it to your web-sites and was granted the permission to do so. ( Please know , for those that are reading this, You must ask for permission to take things (images ect) from other peoples web-sites to use on your own web-site. ..... Sad this must me said, even though people know this, some are doing it anyway......... )
I want you to know that not a day goes by that I do not think of you.
Your plants have sevived almost a year with me. This is a record for me to keep a plant alive. This must say something.... I am going to place your plants in the living room by your wall. To see if it will like it there.....
Thinking of you on the 4 th of july / Delia Allan's Mum
Thinking of you Danny / Rosemary(Alvins Sis)
Love to you Cassandra
SORRY/ Melissa Smith
Tattered 'round the edges, And faded now with time; Memories that linger still, Are what they left behind. Like a precious package, Kept in a secret room; Each memory a treasure, A family heirloom.
On rare and quiet occasion, The package opens wide; Revealing then the memories, That nestle there inside, Faces etched in memories Like photos from the past; Each snapshot printed in the heart, Are memories that last.
Worn and ragged photographs, So faded now with time; Yet the lasting love deep in your heart, Is what they left behind.
Sorry for not getting to visit as of late, but I am back on track, now that I am completely moved. Always loving and thinking of you and your family, Melissa
Last two weekends / Cassandra Hyatt (Sister to Danny Groves ) Dearest Danny, The last two weekends we have been camping. We had a nice time at both locations. Had a few ups and downs but for the most part it was great. The first weekend I went canoeing for the first time. It was nice and peaceful. You would have loved it. We got rained on a few times which would have been a bonus for you. On the way to the location it was raining and I noticed a rainbow off to the left, ( I was driving) Then I noticed there was another one off to the right,,,, short time later I noticed they were connected. It was a complete rainbow. It was really neat to see. Farlinton camp site went a lot smoother. Not as many people around so I didnt have to hold Isabella all the time. She is very shy around people she doesnt know. IT didnt take almost 3 hours to get there, we didnt get lost, so that part made it a lot less stressful. Oh we got raided by a pair of racoons. Which I also think you would have found funny. There were two, one was larger than the other. And it didnt want the smaller one to have any of the goods. They came out just after dark while we were still out of our tents so we saw them. When the morning came we noticed what caos they caused. The trash bag that I tied to a tree was scattered, I had a stryofoam cooler with bread, cherry filled donut things, ham buns, hot dog buns, honey buns, The coons bite the top off of that and ate all the bread, I think they got into a few more things... The next night Tammie came out there with us because we had Avery for the trip/ We thought we were ready for them, put things away that we thought they would be interested in.... But no we were attacked again... This time they got into the bag of sugar, which they left alone the night before. They also got into Steves left overs. Took the lid off the pot and turned it over nicely so it was laying right beside the pan. The next night we had a storm so we didnt think they would be coming around. Sure enough they came to see us again. They fish were biting, we caught a few big fish, and a few smaller ones. The boys caught a baby water tutle (that some how disappeared????) and a tadpol.. For the most part it was a great weekend.
I have been thinking about you a lot this last past week, I mean more than my normal thinking. I dont know if it is because it is getting closer to the 4th, August, or September. You know when some one gives birth to their child, it is hard to imagine life without that child, Hard to remember life the way it was before. Now we are having to know what life is like without you here. It is a very sad thought. Your family has been through so much this year,,,,
You would be proud of your oldest sister Danny, Even though great pain in her heart because of a few things and because we lost you,,, she still hung in there, gave it her all, and made it through another semester. We both know you were with her Danny. We know you guided her through it.
I am going to close this for now, I want you to know that i think about you all the time. I really miss you Danny. Love you Danny Cassandra
