Danny Baskin was born to the late Tom Baskin and Rafinia
Johnson Baskin in Union Springs, Alabama, on March 21, 1951.
He loved the Lord and being surrounded by his family and friends. His
favorite hobby was fishing. He enjoyed coming home, going around the
back to the table and cleaning all of the fish he caught, so that he could give
them out to the neighborhood and friends.


Danny transitioned into eternal rest on July 12, 2018.


He worked for the government as a diesel mechanic from 1974 to 2001,
when he retired. He also served in the military for three years, receiving
an honorable discharge; he then worked at ITT as a mechanical engineer.


Danny leaves to cherish fond memories: his faithful and loving wife of
45 years, Mary Baskin; three loving and devoted children, Tony Malloy,
Tammy Malloy and Mashone Baskin; five grandchildren, Danielle
Baskin, Camron Baskin, Zihyea Merchant, Zoe Merchant and Greyson
Malloy; four great-grandchildren, Hailee Grant, Camron Baskin, Chloe
