Art Daniel

Art Daniel, 72, retired businessman and former Carrollton-Farmers Branch school trustee, died Tuesday, Aug 28, 1990, in Carrollton.
A retired service station owner, Mr. Daniel had served on the school board from 1958 to 1966. He was a native of Carrollton, reared on a family farm in the vicinity of Denton Road and Whitlock Lane. He was a member of First Baptist Church of Carrollton and of James A. Smith Masonic Lodge 395.

"Art was a businessman who was well known and trusted by the community," said Mayor Milburn Gravley. "I guess I have known him all my life and treasured him for many years as a friend who took a keen and close interest in the good of the community."
Gravley said he recalled three service station locations that Daniel owned and operated - on the west side of I-35E (then two-lane Hwy. 77) at Crosby Road, a Mobil station on Valley View at Josey Lane and a Texaco on I-35 at Whitlock.
"It seemed like just everybody knew and liked Art and would take their vehicles there for service. People knew to trust him," Gravley said.

Pallbearers will be Bobby Hackler, Harold W. Dennis, Milburn Gravley, Chip James, Rial McManus and Thomas Reeder.
