DANIEL F. COURTNEY SR.
Daniel F. Courtney, Sr., 91, a 56-year resident of Lombard, passed away to Eternal Glory on Aug. 31, 2018.
Daniel was preceded in death by Eleanor, his loving wife of 54 years; and his parents, James and Catherine Courtney. Left to miss his laughter, smile and “Irish eyes” are his loving children, Daniel F. Courtney, Jr. (Randine), Kevin, Brian and Barbara (Kurt) Harfmann; and his grandchildren, Courtney (Ryan) Plunkett and Kyle Harfmann.
Daniel lived to serve the Lord and others. For more than 30 years, Daniel worked as a counselor at the Archdiocese of Chicago, where his compassion and love of people shone through. He served as Toastmaster at many cemetery functions, dressed up as Santa for the neighbors and delivered Meals on Wheels to local seniors for 10 years. Daniel also was a Lector at Sacred Heart Catholic Church and St. Pius X.
Daniel loved drinking coffee and we always joked that there wasn’t a fast-food restaurant that he didn’t like. The family is forever grateful for the support, care and compassion of Heartland Hospice. We will miss Dan’s gregarious personality until we are reunited with Our Lord in our Mansion in the Sky.
Funeral services were held Wednesday, Sept. 5, at St. Pius X Catholic Church, Lombard. Interment Queen of Heaven Cemetery, Hillside.
