I'm so sorry for your family's loss. Dan was clearly loved and will be dearly missed. Please take comfort in the Bible's promise for the future. Acts 24:15 speaks of a resurrection, a time when God will reunite us with our loved ones again! I hope this helps bring some comfort in this time of sorrow.

Our condolences to your family in the loss of a great man. Working with him at Marvin's was a pleasure and I always saw him as a man with true grit and great ethics! I learned from him as a newbie to the company back in the late 70's and appreciated his values and charm! Laurel

Heartfelt sympathies from our family, Eloise. Dan was such a good friend and high school classmate of Mom's. He was one of our community icons. Dan made a difference in so many lives and community programs. Another one of our "Greatest Generations" now free from pain and sadness. He will be missed!
