Not sure what to say?

I learned of Daniel's passing at a recent PRIDE event at Ameriprise. I was deeply saddened by the loss we will all experience. He was a true advocate for the GLBT community. We worked together on presenting his program on planning for individuals within the LGBT community as well as he helped me with updates to the Safe Place Program. We were always collaborating together, trying to come up with ways to get the Safe Place Program rolled out to the field for little or no money. Both of us are...

Danny, you will be missed.

I will miss Daniel. Although our paths hadn't crossed lately, Daniel was an exceptionally thoughtful, purposive, generous-spirited man. I appreciated his aesthetic sensibility (especially his sweet little house) and the way he loved to host group events. I learned something about how to be a man from knowing him.

Daniel, I'm grateful to have been part of your life. I'm sorry you had to leave us so early and suddenly. May your soul be at peace.

With tears I react to my mail on Ameriprise letterhead informing me of Daniel's death, beacause all that I'm reading here is so true of his great heart and earnest care for people. He started as my financial planner when my son was born and he was always sincerely interested in us and our well being. Truly a gentleman, with a great sense of humor as well as humility. Clearly his connection with clients went beyond the normal. Many will miss him and my condolences go out to his family members...

Dear Mary Ann - Kevin and I were deeply saddened to hear of your younger brother's passing. We know to well the feelings of shock and loss; and we remember your kind words of comfort when we lost Kevin's brother Terry on Christmas Day 2008 and my mother December 2009. But know, certainly, that your brother's light is a shining star in God's heaven where he will always watch over you and keep you in his love. Our love and prayers go out to you and your family.

I was so surprised and saddened to hear of Daniel's passing. He was my neighbor when he first moved to Minneapolis and has been a friend since. He allowed me to let Maggie outside for him when he first started at Ameriprise and was working long hours. He was my valued financial advisor but mainly my friend and I will miss him alot. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends during this sad time.


I was so surprised and saddened to return from vacation and hear of Dan's passing. I wish that I could have been at your memorial with others who cared for you. My memories of Dan are of our high school days together and of a long conversation we had at our 20th class reunion. I am wishing all of Dan's many friends and family much comfort now.

"What we once enjoyed and deeply loved we can never lose, for all that we love deeply becomes a part of us."
- Helen Keller.
When I received the news of Dan's death, I first experienced a wave of grief followed by the warmness of memories. I knew Dan during our time at St. John's Student Parish in East Lansing. The most enduring memory of Dan is his LAUGH. He would tip his head back and let it rip - this big, deep, belly laugh that would instantly uplift spirits and make it...

I just found out about Daniel's passing at Pride this weekend. There was a poster memorializing him.

I was only an acquaintance of Daniel's. but I had known him for about 5 years, and would see him once or twice a year at friends' houses or at social functions. He was funny, articulate, intelligent, and a real prince of a gentleman. I'm terribly sorry to hear of his passing, and will miss him.

Peace, blessings, and prayers go out to his family and friends!
