Daniel Millon

Daniel Denard “Dee” Millon, cherished son, brother and father, entered eternal rest on December 28, 2015. Those who knew Daniel remember a young man who was deeply connected to family and community — a presence that brought comfort, companionship and pride to those around him. He is lovingly survived by his mother, Kazanda Millon; his father, Denard Alonzo; his grandmother, Nelda J. Millon; eight brothers; and three children who carried forward the light of his life.

Daniel’s life was rooted in family ties and neighborhood connections in New Orleans. He was welcomed and celebrated by relatives and friends across the community, including parishioners at Our Lady Star of the Sea Catholic Church and members of local motorcycle clubs and organizations. The outpouring of support at his funeral services reflected the many small ways he mattered — in visits, laughter and the daily routines he shared with family and neighbors.

He was a proud father to Tyrell Turner, Iy'ran Richardson and Sevyn Millon, who remain central to his lasting legacy. Daniel’s family described him through the relationships he kept and the strength he drew from those bonds. His survivors include a wide circle of aunts, uncles and friends who honored his memory and the place he held among them.

A funeral service was held on January 2, 2016, at Our Lady Star of the Sea Catholic Church in New Orleans, followed by interment at Mt. Olivet. Family, friends and members of the community gathered to pay their respects and remember Daniel’s life — the small gestures and daily moments that made him beloved. Though his life was cut short, those who knew Daniel recall a man whose family and community loyalties endure in memory.

Daniel is preceded in death by grandparents Richard Porter and George and Alfreda Alonzo. In honoring his memory, family and friends continue to celebrate the love he showed and the relationships he built, keeping his name and spirit present in their lives.
