To Vera, Evelyn, Mary Ann, Dorothy and Danny. My heartfelt condolences go out to you all with the passing of Dan. As a kid growing up in PG I recall of him fondly. Whether it was with the PG Emergency Crew, at church or as a little league coach although I never got the opportunity to play under him but knew many that did he had a tremendous impact with them. Dan will be truly missed. God Bless you all in your time of grief.
