Daniel Fleetham, Sr. was an inspiration and wonderful student of history and the life of Norwich University. He and his son were strong supporters of the Sullivan Museum at Norwich, and shared many, many wonderful stories with us. We have appreciated all of his contributions over the years. Our condolences and best wishes to the family during this time.

I first met Dan when I was a teenager back in the summer of 1945 working for his parents at The Cobb House on Canaan Street. On one occasion, he had come home on leave from the service, and being a 12 year old child, I hero worshipped him and was flattered when he would pay attention to me by engaging in friendly wrestling matches with a giggling kid on the side lawn of the inn. I had very fond memories of the man.

I first met Dan in the summer of 1945 when I was a teenager working for his parents who owned The Cobb House, an inn on Canaan Street. Dan, who had been in the service, on one occasion, came home on leave. As a 12 year old kid, I hero worshipped this veteran of the wars who took the time to pay attention to me and fool around by engaging in friendly wrestling matches on the side lawn with a giggling kid who was flattered by all of this recognition.

My condolences to the Fleetham family. I first met Dan at Belknap College in Center Harbor where I worked and he was in charge of buildings and Grounds as well as being a house parent, with his wife Betty, for Coe House. We later became "neighbors" on the same road. We were both involved in scouting and attended many of the same meetings.

My condolences to the Fleetham family. I remember Dan from Belknap College In Center Harbor where I worked and Dan and Betty were house parents at Coe House and Dan was in charge of Buildings and Grounds. I remember being neighbors in Center Harbor and attending many of the same scout functions with him. He lived a long life may he have eternal rest with friends and family with the Lord.
