The Pearl family released the following statement.
"We finally laid to rest our beloved son, husband,
brother and father in his home town, overlooking the
concert hall where he loved to perform with his youth
orchestra. Danny will continue to inspire his family
and the thousands of friends and strangers who were
touched by his life and death. He will always be remembered
for his pursuit of truth and dialogue, his respect for
people of all backgrounds, and his love of music, humor,
and friendship. This legacy will be preserved through
the Daniel Pearl Foundation, and will forever fuel our
resolve to see humanity triumphant."
As a tribute to Danny's life and joyous spirit, the
family has asked that, in lieu of sending flowers, well-wishers
create and support
musical events in their communities on Danny's birthday,
October 10th.
