Dan M. Renfro passed away Monday, Sept. 7, 2020 in Ferriday.  He was born August 4, 1949 to Louis G. Renfro and Betty J. Fletcher Renfro.  Dan’s Dad worked for Mobile Oil and they traveled and lived in many places through the years.  This instilled in Danny the desire to see the world and did so by working and traveling the USA and beyond.  First he served in the United States Army and was drafted to Vietnam and later working for Koch Specialties Company along side his faitful welding partner, Jose Gutierrez , who was like a brother for 30 years.  Dan used to say, “I’ve got to take care of this golden arm.”
