GREENSBORO — Mr. Danny Lee Black went home to be with His Lord on Thursday, October 30, 2008, at Beacon Place in Greensboro.

Celebration of his life will be held 5 p.m. on Saturday, November 1, at Hanes Lineberry Sedgefield Chapel. Pastor Brett Thompson will be officiating.

Danny was born on September 3, 1944, in Greensboro, the son of Hiram Mack and Robbie Justice Black. He worked 40 years with the Weyerhauser, Inc. team until his retirement. He was an avid Nascar fan. But most of all he loved the beach and beach music. Some of his favorite times were spent "shagging" with his loving wife, Marché under the Boardwalk.

He was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, uncle and loyal friend to all who knew him.

He is survived by his loving wife, Marché Black; his daughters, Breanne Black of Greensboro, Danell Black- Sharpe and husband, Kevin of Kernersville, and Brandi Black of Kernersville; grandchildren, Damian (his pride and joy) and Dominic Black, Marissa Black; special nieces and nephews, Brittney and Taylor Leonard, Tabbitha Leonard, Kyle Leonard and wife, Cody and their daughter, Kylee Leonard whom he loved very much and was commonly known as "Uncle Duck". He will also be deeply missed by his four legged friends, Coyote, Kelsey and Harley.

The family will receive friends for reflection following the service.

The family would like to extend a special thank you to Weyerhouser, Inc., American Express, East Forsyth Eaglettes, Truliant Federal Credit Union, Bank of America and Seacoast Church for their ongoing support and prayers through this difficult time.

Memorials may be made to Seacoast Church, 2317 Stanley Road, Greensboro, NC 27407 or Hospice and Palliative Care of Greensboro, 2500 Summit Ave., Greensboro, NC 27405.
