Most of all they wish for you to be safe and that you hold your loved ones close. Thank you...... Daniel “Danny” T. Neputy of Hickory Hills passed away unexpectedly September 14, 2022 at the age of 24.Loving son of Tom and Colette (nee Elsen). Dear brother of Michael Neputy & Lauren Neputy. Dearest nephew of John (Kathy) Elsen, Tom Elsen, Ann Elsen (Ron Mathius), Michele Elsen, Russ Elsen, Darren (Cathy Padilla) Neputy and Kristi (Bryan) Smith. He was a cousin and friend to many. Danny was a complicated person - almost impossible to define. He was inherently smart, but hated school. He was the only grade schooler who lived for the weekends just like a grown man. He was great at sports, but didn’t necessarily like playing them. He loved computer gaming, hanging out with friends, and watching Impractical Jokers and Ridiculousness TV shows. Children always loved to be around him. Danny faced a lot of struggles within himself. In addition, he suffered from epilepsy since his early teenage years. Although extremely rough around the edges at times, those who took the time to really get to know Danny saw a funny, kind, caring, and fiercely loyal friend. Danny was loved by more people than he could ever know. Although our hearts are broken, we are comforted knowing that Danny’s struggles are over, and he is finally at peace.
