Lots of love and prayers from your Atlanta cousins! Thanking God for the gift of Uncle Dan and all the joy he brought to our family! He will be so painfully missed but he will live on in our memories and all the times we share "Uncle Dan" stories!
Love you all!

Dave, Danny & Family, my heart goes out to you all. May you all have joy in the great memories and unbeatable great accomplishments that your Dad left for you.

My best wishes to you all.
