Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the life of Daniel R. Kinley who
passed away at the age of 46 on June 12, 2005, in Chicot County, Arkansas.
Danny was born on March 14, 1959, in Wichita, Kansas. Danny distinguished
himself as a terrific father, loving husband, and community hero.
Danny, a member of Parkview Baptist Church, was a firefighter for the
El Dorado Fire Department for 11 years, eventually earning the distinguished
rank of Captain. Day after day, Danny risked his life in the pursuit of
saving others. There is no greater civil service, no job more commendable
than that of a firefighter.
I extend my deepest sympathies to Danny's family. My thoughts and prayers
are with his wife Leslie; their son Braxton; their daughters Heather and
Devan; mother and stepfather Maureen and Fred Buchanan; his brother Bryan
Taylor of Little Rock; and his two sisters Karen and Tanya. |
