Dan was a guy who made you feel good about yourself, always had a smile when he saw you. We had a nick name for him we called him Reggie. Reggie you'll be missed. God Bless you and family.

It has been a pleasure to have Dan working with us at the pharmacy. We looked forward to his jokes and his stories every day at 3. The news of his passing left us all shocked and sobbing. I'm comforted that he is reunited with his wife, and through Christ there is no goodbye, just a see ya later. You are all in my thoughts.
