Not sure what to say?

I´m so saddened to see Dan passed away he was such a wonderful man.I got to know Dan during the flood at BAE in 2011 in Johnson City, NY. Dan cared so much for all of us and he made sure our jobs stayed in the area. He came down to the flooded streets to see what we needed during the clean up of so many of our co-workers. I was so honored to be part of his team when we won the Gold and Silver awards. My condolences to his family. Bridgette Schroeder

I first met Dan when he was at General Dynamics and had the privilege of introducing hime to our president John Krieck when he came to Sanders. His role was undefined, but it didn't take him long to emerge as a top, articulate analyst of the role of electronic warfare. His growth at Sanders was without precedence. Our company benefitted greatly from his contributions and I am fortunate to have known him as a colleague and a friend. May God bless him and all his loved ones. Stan Graveline

Dan was a great colleague and leader with a calm and confident disposition. I remember when he first came to the facility in Nashua, where he was the king of operational analysis, and a rogue for using his MAC instead of a PC to share his strategic insights

I spent lots of time with Dan in the Building 10 - Proposal Center on Canal street. He was the most brilliant technical writer I ever worked with. Dan was also the BEST Mission/Ops Analyst I ever met. His briefings and graphics were off the charts excellent. Dan was always good natured. We will all miss his grin and chuckle. He was an amazingly good person and a close friend to many. Our prayers are with the family.

A wonderful leader; thoughts and prayers for his family.

Sue, Brie and Trent, So sorry for the loss of your beloved husband and father, Dan. He left us early, but made a huge impact in his professional life and most importantly with his family. He will be missed, but forever cherished. God Bless you all. Carolie and Peter Owens

This is a tragic loss for Dan's family, BAE Systems, and the world. Dan was one of the most honest, gentle, smart, and likable people I have ever had the privilege of knowing. May God rest his soul and comfort his loved ones.

Dan was a great friend and colleague. His humble, yet decisive nature, made him one of the strongest leaders I have ever had the pleasure to work with. The memories, accomplishments, and unrelenting care for those around him, will be forever ingrained in my memory. Deepest sympathies to the entire Gobel family. With much love, from the entire Russell family.
