    He saw his baby do his first steps. He was a real good father and a real good husband.... He was always thinking about us. He called me every morning from Iraq.
    — Rebekah Reyes, widow

    Reyes followed his older brother into the military. He was away at airborn school when his son, also named Daniel Fernando, was born. Because of the war, Reyes spent more time with the boy via webcam than he was ever able to do in person.
