“Danny was a 17 year old senior at Rutherford
High School when he died tragically in an
automobile accident on November 28, 1999.
He loved fishing and swimming, and was
a lifeguard at Shipwreck Island Waterpark.
During his senior year at Rutherford, he was
a member of the film crew for the football
team. Danny attended every practice and game,
filming the Rutherford football team as they
made their way toward the State Championship.
He was extremely proud to be a part of the team
and all the excitement. Danny will always be
remembered most for his wonderful smile and
kind and loving nature. He was a friend to all,
and would do anything he could to help anyone
in need,” says Joanne Minkey Crouch, Danny’s
mother, and also a Comcast employee.
In honor of Danny, Comcast teamed up with
Fox Sports Net to fund a scholarship to be
awarded in his name each year. On hand for
the presentation were Comcast representatives
Joanne Minkey Crouch, Cil Schnitker and
Sonya Henderson; Dr. John Haley, principal of
Arnold High School; Tony St. Amant of Bay
District Schools; Lindsey West and her family.
