Not sure what to say?

Thinking of Mr. Dearinger and his family today - he was an amazing man that had a significant impact on my life. I lived on my own my entire senior year, barely graduated because of all the responsibilities I had. He gave me so much support, he could have failed me but worked with me to ensure I graduated. Not many were there for me, he was one of very few. Anyone that knew him was blessed by him.

We so loved Dan. A great human being who will be missed but remembered fondly.

I was lucky enough to have Mr. Dearinger as an instructor & coach at Mac & Fort. I will never forget him.

Dan would be happy to know that we will miss his memorial because we are traveling to Arizona to watch the son of our son who played for Dan in that memorable World Series in Pine Bluff where Bryan´s squeeze bunt won the series for us. I cannot begin to explain the joy those 3 years gave us and the wonderful memories we have carried forward all these years. Dan´s knowledge of the game and evenings talking about history will forever be with us. We will always remember Dan´s enthusiasm for life

Ryan and Bryan, I am so sorry for your loss. I miss my dad every day. Hugs to you and your families.

Sending heartfelt condolences from Ireland to Glenda and their extended family at this emotional time. I have fond memories of Dan as a graduate of the the of 88' and as a FVHS colleague from 1996 to 1999. May Dan rest in eternal peace.

God bless you Coach Dearinger now and forever! You coached the importance of character and hard work as more important than just winning the game. You and Coach Gary Boggs (may he also RIP) were a dynamic force for Trapper Football! Thank you Coach Dearinger! FVHS Class of 1991

I had the privilege of being in Mr Dearingers class at Mac Hi between `75-`77. He was a wonderful teacher and though I was not an athlete I was well aware that he was highly respected as a coach. I was also taught by Miss Schweigert, also an excellent teacher. I´m so happy to see they shared many years together and have a loving family. My heartfelt condolences to Glenda and the Dearinger family.

Mr. Dearinger was one of my favorite teachers at Fort. He made History fun He will be missed. Prayers and lots of love to the family. Jacie Pulley Class of 94
