What can I say about the greatest man I have ever known? My mentor, my advice giver, my protector, my friend, my idol, and my father. If I can be half the man and father you were, I will exceed any expectations for myself. I will carry your name proudly and I will miss you everyday for the rest of my life. I love you Daddy. Your son and "kiddo"

Dan,
My "walking encyclopedia" is what I called him. Not only the most knowledgable in the industry, but one who put his heart in everything he did. Always had time for whomever walked in his office or called to get his opinion. A man of peace and calmness, love and laughter and an undying passion for the love of his life, Pam. His friends are innumerable and his presence and kind words touched so many lives. You will be missed our "gentle giant". Until we meet again, may we find peace knowing the Lord will take care of you.

I was so sad when I heard the news about Dan. Him and Pam were some of the kindest people I have ever worked with....When Dan would walk through the doors he would always make sure to say hello & ask how I was doing. He will be sorely missed.
