I met Dan around 1989 when we both worked at the NRC in Vancouver.

Dan helped me move to the West End and later I helped him move to Victoria. We kept in touch over the years through frequent, lengthy phone conversations and the occasional visit.

After moving to Ontario five years ago I reconnected with Dan. In 2014 I visited him and we spent an enjoyable afternoon driving around his neighbourhood.

My condolences to Dan's family. He was a great guy and a good person and I enjoyed the time I spent with him a great deal. He passed away far too soon.

It was with great sadness that I read of Dan's death. I knew him well and shared many meals with him over the years. He was a kind man who spoke fondly of his family, especially about his nieces and nephew. Please accept my sympathies for your loss.
Sincerely,
Laurie Tighe
