The time came to say good bye. As they gathered for the Memorial tears filled their eyes. Stella had dressed little Mitch in a black suit with white shirt...and black shoes. Around his neck were Danny's dogtags. Holding him up to her neck she softly caressed his back. He was restless today...he knew this was the day he would be listening to everyone saying good bye.
"Mac...can you to take him for a minute. I need to check on Don."
"Sure love. Come here son."
Looking into his daddy's eyes as his daddy kissed him, he curled his head into his neck. God Mac loved every minute he spent with Mitch in his arms. Always his son brought him great comfort. Walking towards Danny's parents...he took a deep breath.
"Mr. and Mrs. Messer...it's wonderful to see you again. I wish it was under better circumstances. I'm very sorry for your loss. Danny was our family...we are finding it very hard to move on. Especially for Mitch. I'm not sure how much Danny shared with you. But he and Mitch had a very special bond...."
They could see Mac's eyes become misty. Not wanting him to upset himself they caressed his arm and whispered....
"Shh...it's okay Mac...you don't need to explain. Danny informed us of his closeness with Mitch. He also sent us this for Mitch...said we were to give it him if anything happened to our son."
Passing Mac the envelope..they took Mitch. As Mac opened it he seen the bonds and savings account inside. That was as much as Mac could take..as he cried out loud.
"Why does it fell like Danny knew this was going to happen....it shouldn't be this way. He should still be alive with us. It all seems so wrong."
"I know Mac. But Danny had always given us instructions throughout his life of what to do if anything happened to him. As soon as you and Stella had Mitch...that's when we recieve the new instructions with his will."
Hearing Mac's crying Stella walked over and touched his back....
"Mac...shh...what is it?"
"Hello Stella...how are you feeling?"
"I'm alright...how are you two doing? This must be very hard on you both."
"It is...but we will manage. We have too...Danny left us instructions on what he wanted done. But I think Mac may be alittle overwhelmed. Danny left all his bonds and money to Mitch...it was important to Danny that Mitch have a head start on his education. Who would have believed it from Danny...right?"
"Yeah...that was our Danny...always living for the day. I had no idea he was a saver."
"Well...I'll give you your son back. I need to find Don...it seems Danny left him something too. Take care love. I'll see you for the Uligy's."
"Mac...can you to take him for a minute. I need to check on Don."
"Sure love. Come here son."
Looking into his daddy's eyes as his daddy kissed him, he curled his head into his neck. God Mac loved every minute he spent with Mitch in his arms. Always his son brought him great comfort. Walking towards Danny's parents...he took a deep breath.

When Danny's parents reached Don's side they found him wrapped in Angell's arms.
"Donnie...hello son."
Turning from Jess's arms he seen the Messer's. Not saying a word he embraced them both in his arms.
"He's gone...I'm so sorry. I should have been able to save him. Please don't hate me."
"Shh...come on Donnie...it's okay son. We understand. None of this is your fault. You need to stop blaming yourself. Please Donnie...stop doing this."
Wiping at his tears with a kleanex..Mrs.Messer passed him a set of keys.
"What is this?"
"This is a gift from Danny. He wanted you to have it Don. He said it was the one thing he could leave you...that you would understand."
Don did understand. For he and Danny talked about riding away on day in the future. Once they had some free time they were going to go cross country with his Harley.
"I can't take this..."
Trying to pass them the keys, they wouldn't accept them.
"Accept it Don...this is your memory of Danny. He loved you very much. he also left you this letter. You can read it now...or later. We need to go see other family now. We'll see you at the Uligy."
Embracing Don again..they left.
When Sheldon arrived with Brenda they found Mac feeding Mitch.
"Aww...look at him Mac. He looks so handsom in his little suit. How's he been sleeping?"
"Not good. He keeps Stella and I up most nights."
"Hmm..could he still be restless...or maybe a change in his feeding schedual?"
"No...we've kept everything the same. It just started shortly after Danny's death. Stella seems to think Mitch knows that his Uncle is gone."
"What do you think Mac?"
"To be honest....I think she may be right. When we play Danny's tape he calms right down. So I'm thinking it may be. Danny made daily visits every morning and night to see Mitch. Stella thinks Mitch became use to this..and now it's not happening anymore he doesn't understand."
"It wouldn't be unheard of Mac. Alot of children...especially young notice changes around them. Usually when it happens they do become confused. Im sure in a few days he'll be fine."
"I hope so Brenda...for Stella and I could really use some sleep."
"Excuse me...if everyone could please enter the Chapel....we'd like to begin the memorial."
Walking into the Chapel all the CSI's and their family sat on one side at the front....while Danny's parents and family sat on the opposite side.
"Please everyone be seated....let's begin....
"Donnie...hello son."
Turning from Jess's arms he seen the Messer's. Not saying a word he embraced them both in his arms.
"He's gone...I'm so sorry. I should have been able to save him. Please don't hate me."
"Shh...come on Donnie...it's okay son. We understand. None of this is your fault. You need to stop blaming yourself. Please Donnie...stop doing this."

"As we all gather hear today to say good bye to Detective Danny Messer. We will hear his friends sadly express why he will be missed.
It's said that every man is put on this earth to serve a great purpose..and once that purpose is complete..they are taken back to Heaven. For Danny his time and purpose came to soon. He was young, bright, loved life and always brought laughter and caring to those around him.
I would now like to have Det. Mac Taylor come up and say a few words in honor of our Danny."
"Thanks...I'm sure we all know by now that Danny is sitting in this Chapel with us as we all speak about him today. Alot of you who didn't know Danny that well wouldn't understand...so let me explain.
Danny enjoyed coming into work everyday...never did he pass up an opportunity to make one of us laugh....smirk...or sigh. For me Danny became like my son. Through his hardships with his brother I was there to comfort him...guide him...and help him heal through the trials that others in the department put him through. He was giving...
sympathetic and warm with those victims that needed that extra step to heal.
Danny became a very important Uncle in his nephews life. Always making the time to stop by and visit...talk...or just play with Mitch. They became inseperatable...so much so that on the days Danny didn't show up Mitch would know..as would we with his saddened screams."
*voice breaks*
"I honestly don't know how we are going to overcome his death. As it makes no sense to us when it doesn't even feel like he's gone. As a family we will continue to keep every memory of him alive in our hearts...our home...but most of all our souls."
Stepping down from the mic. Mac took his seat as Sheldon walked up.
"hello....I"m Sheldon Hawkes. I was blessed to meet a friend like Danny. He brought new meaning to my morgue when I was a doctor. Always he would stop by and make me laugh while leaning over a corpse.
Then when I started in the field I remember Danny and I worked a case with exquisit insect cuisine....insects to be exact. That was a case I would never forget as we all bet that Danny couldn't get Lindsay to eat the insects Danny had brought back to the lab.
All except for Mac..he was the smart one. He said Lindsay would eat the insects. Sure enough she did...and we all lost the bet. As we watched Danny bite into some worms and Lindsay a spider that was enough for us as we all headed to Mac's office for pizza."
*Chuckling*
There isn't enough words to express how much Danny meant to me..to Mac...Stella...Don and the rest of the team. Always he was our rock...our warmth...our laughter...our comedian...but most of all our family. He will truely be missed. In memory of Danny I've written a small poem that I would now like to share....
"Danny...you will be remembered in our hearts, as each new night descends upon the sky. You will be remembered in our hearts...with each breeze that passes by. Most of all you will be remembered for the laughter you brought to our lives. Each and every moment you blessed us with your gentle side. And we now know you are a Angel...shinning brightly in the night sky...you are the lighted clearest star that forever floats across the skies."
Coming down from the mic...Stella passed a tissue to Sheldon as he walked by. Looking up at the podium the team could see Don's hands shake...his eyes weld up...his voice crack as he began....
"Danny.....

Coming down from the mic...Stella passed a tissue to Sheldon as he walked by. Looking up at the podium the team could see Don's hands shake...his eyes weld up...his voice crack as he began....
Ummm...I thought I had everything ready to say...but I guess it all got lost between my tears and my sadness of losing my best friend..partner..and brother of my heart.
Please try and bare with me as I try to express my love for my best friend. "
Seeing Don lose all his thoughts Jess stood and walked up by his side. Passing him the paper...she kissed him for strength and walked back down.
"I...I'm sorry for not being able to remember my words Danno. But my heart is so full of pain...of sorrow..so understand pal...as I read from my paper...
"Danny...
I used to laugh with you inside, I used to laugh as we had our boys nights and basketball fights. The bets we made as we yelled..."BOOM...nothing but net baby. The cases we worked...the jokes we did tell...the suspects we would always innterrogate and give hell.
The passion of your friendship...your warmth...your love...the chemistry thats disappeared....now you have left me...to go above. I honestly don't know how I can have the strength to go on...when you are no longer beside me...where you belong.
*Silence and cries softly are heard*
My pain...my saddness...my heart..that no longer wants to beat...all because you've been taking from me...Mitch...and our team. If I could turn back the hands of time...I'd rewind them back...leaving this nightmare behind. I only hope you are happy...safe..and warm...watching over all of us....from heavens sweet home.
*Tears flowed from the eyes of family and friends.*
Walking from the podium Jess reached his side just as he collapsed in tears in front of Danny's coffin.
"I'm sorry Danny...so sorry I don't have more to give you then my thoughts. I love you Danny....I don't know how to go on."
Mac, Sheldon and Adam helped Don to his feet.
"Shh...it's okay Don...Danny understands...he's right here with us."
Danny's parents were distraut...never had they seen passion...such sorrowful love from Don's heart. Getting up Don's dad took the podium.
"Everyone...before we end this Memorial our son did a video good bye for his team. So if we could please remain quiet for the next few minutes..it would be appreciated...thank you."
Turning on the video..they watched as Danny came on the screen. Hearing the deep gurgling laugh of the baby...everyone turned and watched as he flaied his hands and feet happily.
"Hello guys....yeah it's me...I know if you are all watching this then I'm on my way to Heaven. Which means I beat you all there. What is it they say?? Only the good die young?"
*Everyone laughed between tears*
You see that Don....I was good...BOOM baby...BOOM. Anyways...these little tapes last I think maybe ten minutes at most...so I'll make it quick. First to my little bud Mitch...your Uncle Danny is right beside you bud. Right beside you...where I will still forever watch you succeed..graduate and make me proud. Know how much your Uncle Danny loves you bud..always.
Mac...Stel...I'm sorry I left you guys behind. It wasn't my intent...but I need you both to know without you...I would have never made it through..it was your strength...your belief in me that saved my soul...my career from ending. For that I will always thank you. I love you both so much.
Donnie...I'm going to miss you the most man. I'm going to miss your smile...your laughter...our boys nights out...but most of all I'm going to miss your strength man..I know without it..I would have given up on life years ago. I love you man..always Donnie...don't ever forget that.
Now before the tape runs out...Sheldon, Adam, Sid....I love you guys too. More then you guys knew...you were all my rocks. Love you guys...bye."
When the video stopped Mitch screamed in tears. heartbreaking tears that had the whole Chapel in great saddness. For here was this innocent child who had lost his Uncle and knew it. Such heartache for someone so young to bare...to understand.
Standing up Stella and Mac took Mitch from the Chapel leaving everyone behind with their tears.
