Not sure what to say?

My deepest sympathies to the family. I was lucky enough to know Dan for more than 12 years. We taught flying in Covington together, taught at Delta together, and we drank a few beers together. I wish I had seen more of him. He was a patient, generous, and fun guy.

Deeply regret Dan's passing. I worked with him as a Ground School Instructor at Delta until my retiremnet in 2007. He was a true professional and a delight to work with. I am so sorry for your loss.
