Daniel was such a beautiful and talented young man. He could always bring a smile to my face whenever he was around. Daniel had such good qualities about himself. I always enjoyed sitting and talking with him. I can remember how he expressed how much he enjoyed singing and how much he enjoyed writing songs. Not only did I hear it from his mouth, but I saw it in his eyes. I can remember him telling me how much he would like for me to come and hear him sing. What such an honor. Daniel you and your music will always live within my heart. I will miss you my dear friend and I pray that there in heaven you have a new song. I love you.

I wrote this the night he died:
Daniel Jaffke, I know Jesus was with you tonight as you took your last breaths. I wonder what He said to you. Did He tell you not to worry, that He would comfort your parents and all who loved you? Did He tell you how much He loved you even before you were born? Did He tell you about our Heavenly Father's home and that you would be with God tonight? Did He tell you that instead of standing on a stage in a local club singing, tonight you would be singing with His heavenly angels? Tonight you left this world too young and too tragically, but tonight you are with Jesus in heaven and I know you are singing for Him. We will see each other again in heaven, little brother

Mary, my heart is broken for you. I lost a sister in a car accident when we were 13 and 14 and it's brutal and such a long road and there is always a hole where they belong. I would NEVER do anything to hurt you and I care deeply for you as a friend and will be sending you comforting vibes and prayers. If you need your hair done before services lmk. No charge. I just feel helpless and I have been there. I mean it. My heart hurts for your whole family. It isn't fair.
Xoxo

Daniel, I am heartbroken that you are gone way too soon. I remember you very well as a little boy. I wish I could've known you better in our adult years, but I'm very thankful and lucky to have spent a couple of family holidays with you over the last few years. I will be praying for Mary, your mom, and the rest of your family and friends during this difficult time. I will miss you. Love, Sarah

I was only blessed to work with Daniel for a short time, but it everyday we worked together was a fun day. He was always so kind to everyone he spoke to and I never saw him get upset or angry with another person. The world truly has lost someone special.

Daniel.You spent a lot of time with me when you were little, not so much when you got older. I want to thank you for leaving behind the most wonderful gift, that is bringing your family together again. I knew this gift was from you from the very start. Thank You. I love you, and I am so sorry that so much time was wasted that we could have been together. I will always feel bad about that. Rest in the arms of the Lord until we meet again Aunt Patty

Daniel,
I give you permission to haunt me. Tell me allllll the secrets of the after life! The secret code is "banana peel." I just heard you say, "Whut?" with that half-revolted face where you have no neck...
Haha. I'll miss you dude. You were never a drag, always contemplating the vastness of life, and you always made me think twice. About everything. I love you.

Daniel,
WOW! It is amazing how many people you touched in your life! I will forever remember that little boy in cowboy boots who loved toting along after all his big sisters. I will cherish the camping trips, mammoth cave trips, Gatlinburg, Kings Island, and all the weekends we spent together when we were little. We may have not seen each often in our adult years but I still love you as much as I did when you were that little boy tugging his pillowcase around! I love you so much and will miss you. I will see you again someday.
Love,
Kelly

Our thoughts and prayers are with you during your time of grief. He sounds like a wonderful man who had some serious music chops. As a musician myself, I am impressed with two bands! What a tragedy his loss is to all of you. Many hugs to all who knew and loved him.

you will forever be in my heart. you were the light in my life. I render all of our long late night talks when I lived in California and Australia... we spent hours joking, talking about politics and how we are going to change the world. little did you know, you already were just by being yourself. rest in peace darling..

{Thank you Daniel for every kind word you ever spoke to me. Even for some things that needed to be said that maybe I didn't want to hear at the time. For our long talks some nights that would go into the morning. Every single time my heart was broken you'd always give me an ear, your time, comfort and try and help me deal if I asked that of you. Whether it was days, weeks or months since we last saw one another nothing ever changed. You were always good to me. Always constant. Always real. If feels so unreal that these next few days are happening. That you're really gone from this earth. I'll never forget your advice, your smile, your laugh or your good good heart. Too good obviously for God felt he had to bring you home way too soon. Be at peace dear friend. Keep on smiling and singing!! ❤I Love you Xo

I remember when Daniel would come to my house in New Whiteland while My band practiced, he was always fun and even jammed with us a few times. I will always remember him as the "kid" who loved music and had one of the most infectious smiles I have ever seen.
