Not sure what to say?

David and Craig, We were sad to learn about your Dad. Our thoughts and prayers go out to your entire family at this hard time. Though, we haven't seen any of you guys in quite a long time, we'll always remember you boys growing up and the fun we had in Mize Meadows.

What a great (man) as Danny would say a good guy. I worked with Danny for many years at Kenworth Truck Co. We shared a lot of good times, even after leaving KC and moving to Seattle Danny would call me each year just to say hello! I will miss the cold Buds we shared over conversations and good laughs, Truely a good friend above all I will miss Danny the most... Here's to you Bud! God bless his family.. Kermit Stricklin....

Dan was only a part of my life for a very short time, but we had wonderful talks and he was one of the good guys. My symphathy goes out to you Linda and Dorothy, the ones who knew him better than all the rest. He loved his family dearly. He will be missed by many from his different activites in life and his many friends. Dan RIP and you will always be remembered.

I was very sorry to learn of Dan's passing. The many co-workers at the Kansas City Plant will remember his smile and friendly visits to say hello, good morning, or to talk about work. It sad to realize that after all the years following the Kenworth closure that I didn't stay in contact with Dan. I did think of him and he was never forgotten. Dave Marler

I am sad to hear the news. I enjoyed working at Kenworth, playing softball, golf, and bowling with Dan in K.C. from 1974-1986. I transferred to Kenworth Chillicothe when the plant closed in 1986. He always made me laugh. He'll be missed.
