I believe Dan and I started working as Athletic Trainers in the OK Red the same year - 1985. I am at West Ottawa and he was at East Kentwood. We shared many games across the field and saw each other at Conventions. He was always willing to help others and I will remember his laughter ( more like Chortle)!
