Daniel D. "Danny" Eisenbrandt, Jr., 73, of Parsons, passed away at 12:04 p.m., Sunday, May 17, 2020, at his home.

Daniel David Eisenbrandt, Jr. was born on September 16, 1946, to Daniel David and Katherine M. (Knedgen) Eisenbrandt, Sr. in Parsons. As a young boy, he grew up in the Parsons area attending Twin Valley and Service Valley Elementary Schools and graduating from Labette County Community High School in 1964.

Following high school, Danny earned an associate's degree in business from Labette County Junior College and a bachelor's degree in Business Administration from Roosevelt University in Chicago, Illinois. Danny served in the military for 30 years, 13 in the U.S. Navy and 17 in the U.S. Army. On January 31, 1993, he retired as a Master Sergeant E-8. During his military career, Danny received numerous honors and awards, but he never listed them, as he did it for his country. After military retirement, Danny sold life insurance. He also owned and operated several successful businesses throughout his life including a body shop, B & D Auto and the Double E Flea Market.

He was a member of the Labette Baptist Church, the American Legion and the VFW Brown-Bishop Post 704.

His greatest accomplishments in life were accepting the Lord and marrying Eunice. He loved spending time with his family and especially the time he spent with Eunice. Danny also enjoyed fishing, spending time at Grand Lake sitting on the deck, nature, watching Westerns, tinkering and working with his hands.
