Daniel Polley Obituary

Polley, Daniel Robert Sunday, February 10, 2013, age 64. Special Companion of Mary Rutenbeck. Previous husband to Barbara Gates (Pierce). Father of Daniel (Melissa), Daina, and Patrick. Son of Mary "Pat" (nee Falvey) and the late Harry Polley. Brother of Jean (Tim) Nolan, Terry (Shelley), and Mike. Special "Bumpa" to Mary's family. Memorial Visitation at THE FUNERAL HOME from 5PM to 8PM on Friday, February 22, 2013. Memorial Service at 8PM. "Dan, Dan the Market Man" was an attendant at the West Allis Farmer's Market for ten years. Dan was a giving soul, always willing to help, and he took care of the farmers as though they were his family. He was also an animal lover - adopting lost and homeless animals throughout his life. He will be dearly missed by G-Dog, and Stella, Luna, and Sampson will surely be waiting to greet him. In lieu of memorials, donations to the family appreciated.

Sorry to hear of your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you. We've missed Dan working the elections. He always had jokes and kept things light. We miss him.

If you loved the farmers market or the flea market - you loved Sheriff Dan.

If you loved a hard working man or a practical man - you loved Sheriff Dan.

If you loved a man that was loyal to his friends and fair to all others - you loved Sheriff Dan.

If you loved a man that played a great game of chess or had a great sense of humor - you loved Sheriff Dan.

If you loved a man that was honest with those around him or a man that could spare the feeling of those that might be hurt - you loved Sheriff Dan.

Sheriff Dan is a man that will be missed and loved by many and if you did not get the opportunity to know him then it was your loss.


My heart felt sympathy to his family and loved ones.
