Danny James Pawletzki December 1, 1957 ~ March 1, 2023 On March 1 st , 2023, Danny Pawletzki, a life-long resident of Aurora, Colorado who lived a happy and adventurous life, passed away at the age of 65 after a courageous battle with lung cancer. Danny died peacefully in his sleep at the Denver Hospice Center. Danny was born on December 1 st , 1957, in Erlangen, Germany. At age 19, he served his country and was a proud member of the Army National Guard for 6 years. Those who knew him were no stranger to his passion for aviation, which first began during his time serving as an Aircraft Armament Subsystem Mechanic, and this passion persisted throughout much of his life. Danny was a successful and accomplished IT Engineer for over 25 years and was also known as the family's personal IT Tech. Danny loved the outdoors, fishing, camping, grilling, and playing horseshoes. He enjoyed reading books, online gaming, and being the jokester of the bunch. And of course, Danny had a passion for music and playing the drums and bass guitar with some of his closest friends. Most of all, Danny loved spending time with his family and loved ones. He is survived by his loving wife of 27 years, June, sons, Adam (Kathleen), Nicholas, Michael, and Matthew, daughter, Kimberly (Thunder), brother, Mike (Chris), sisters, Carrie and Tanya (Dave), Aunt Lilo, his beloved pets, Jazzie Girl and Caitlan Marie, along with many loving grandchildren, nieces, nephews, and extended family. Danny was a loving son, brother, husband, father, grandfather, and friend to everyone - no matter who they were. Danny was preceded in death by his parents, Dave and Christa Ramsey, and sister Carmen. His smile, laugh, outrageous sense of humor, and caring nature will be greatly missed by all who were blessed to know him.
