Donald Hayes McDaniel, 75 years old, was born in Jacksonville, Florida on July 17,

known by all as Butch his entire life. Butch was raised in Jacksonville by his
mother Louise and his grandparents, Charlie and Bessie Jones. His little sister,
Susan Davis was born in 1959. Butch graduated from Robert E. Lee High School in
1966 and attended college classes at Florida Junior College. He played the
Baritone Horn in the Marching Band in high school and played football and
baseball.
Butch was a sports enthusiast. He continued to play baseball on local teams. He
was an accomplished bowler, bowling three leagues per week for many years. He
also enjoyed golf. He was an avid football fan supporting his favorite teams, the
Florida Gators and the Jacksonville Jaguars and enjoyed watching many sports
such as golf, tennis, wrestling and others.

westside of Jacksonville. They welcomed their daughter, Emily Diane McDaniel,
on November 12, 2000. Their family was complete.
