Fort Lauderdale bus shooting victim Danny Colon remembered as being ‘all about family’

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — Family and friends gathered Saturday to say goodbye to Danny Colon, one of two people killed in the Fort Lauderdale bus shooting March 17. But he won’t be forgotten.

Colon, 41, who lived in Hollywood, was riding the Broward County Transit bus on his way home from his job as a mover in Pompano Beach when, authorities say, he was shot and killed by Jamal Meyers, a 34-year-old who is considered a habitual violent offender. Gregory Campbell, a 32-year-old Lauderdale Lakes resident, was also killed in the shooting. Two other bus passengers were injured.

Colon’s funeral was Saturday in Fort Lauderdale. It was a celebration of his life.
