Daniel A “Danny” Townsend went to his heavenly home Wednesday, October 22, 2014 after a courageous 11 month battle with Glioblastoma. Danny was a graduate of South Cobb High School, and a licensed commercial electrician with IBEW. He presently was the owner and operator of Towns End Motors and Emissions in Dallas, GA. Danny will be greatly missed for his wit and loving spirit. He passionately loved his family and friends, and would always be the first to offer assistance to each as well as strangers in need. Danny’s other great passion was antique autos and his pets.

He is survived by his parents, Jack and Pat Townsend; sisters, Jackie Townsend and Melanie Townsend Moody; fiancé, Denise Hughes Langley; children, Hailey and Kyle Townsend; grandson, Rylen Weaver; niece, Lindsay Moody Mills; ex-wife, Dana Townsend.
