Leslie and family,
It's been nearly two years since Dan's passing, but I just found out. I am so very sorry for your loss of one of the kindest, gentlest, easy going people I have ever known. I was just thinking about Dan last night and decided to google him see what I could find. I was Dan's old neighbor and friend back in 1971. We used to hang out together a lot. Later, when we were both divorced, something neither of us chose, we became room mates. Dan was always so kind to me and very generous and welcoming in a time that I really needed a good tfriend.
It's been years since I last saw him, but it feels like yesterday. I am very sad now with knowledge of his loss. I am sad also for you and Bryan, and your children, for the burden of his loss is heaviest with each of you I'm sure. I will have pleasant memories of Dan all of my remaining days.

PS, the last time I saw Dan, I believe he was with you. I was with my wife and we ran into you both at an Eagles Concert in Kansas City back in the 80s or 90s. Dan introduced you to us. Again, my sincere though belated condolences. FH.

Dan was a great friend to me during high school and later during college years. I will always remember the great times we experienced together. Dan was an outstanding person who gave to others and served his nation. Thanks Dan for the memories. Deepest sympathy to his family.
