Daniel ""Danny"" Crisp's Obituary
Daniel ""Danny"" Edward Crisp, age 28 of Seymour, Iowa passed away Thursday, March 26, 2015.
Danny was born March 10, 1987 in Carmichael, California, the son of Matthew ""Marty"" and Lisa (Hackney) Crisp. Danny graduated from Moravia High School in Moravia, Iowa with class of 2005.
He loved spending time with his family and friends.
