Danni passed away on October 15th, 2007 after a
life long battle with Cystic Fibrosis and having under-
gone a double lung transplant earlier in the spring.
As a little girl, Danni spent many nights and weekends
at White Deer Rock Farm with me , her Aunt Patti, Shawn
and her friend Kate ("Our Kate"). We will all miss her dearly.

Old friends, Old friends
Sat on their park bench, Like bookends.
A newspaper blown though the grass
Falls on the round toes,
Of the high shoes, Of the old friends.
Old friends, Winter companions,
The old men, Lost in their overcoats,
Waiting for the sunset.
The sounds of the city,
Sifting through trees,
Settle like dust, On the shoulders
Of the old friends.
Can you imagine us
Years from today,
Sharing a park bench quietly?
How terribly strange
To be seventy.
Old friends,
Memory brushes the same years
Silently sharing the same fears.
Lyrics by Paul Simon
