Not sure what to say?

Judith,Dan and I were in the Air Force together and shared a small house and an apartment in San Bernadino.He was a good friend.He took me to my first hockey game[I still don't understand it but I enjoy it and always think of Dan when I watch].We had some great times together even tough I teased him about his accent.Its my hope that your life will be filled with fond memories of Dan.May you find comfort and happiness in your life.A friend in California, Doc Pherigo

Judy, It is so hard to loose such a close friend as Dan. I could always count on Dan for an odd story or to set me straight by embarrassing me when I didn't know someone's name. I could write a book just filled with all the ways he touched my heart and my parents. He even helped me rewrite a paragraph in my young adult novel. My heart bleeds for you. Our friendship will live through eternity. You are always in my prayers as you know how I love you.

I'm so sorry to hear about Dan. He and I were in the Air Force together, all 4 years,basic training,tech school and Norton AFB. He and I another guy went to Chicago and New Years eve 68/69 trying to pick up girls at the USO (not much luck).When we got to Norton he would loan me his car to go out on dates. Went with him when he picked out his new Opel Cadet. We lost track after the Air Force but got back in contact about 4 years ago on line. I will miss you Dan.Your friend Blake Bethards

Judy,

Art and I are shocked to hear about Dan. We'll always remember his hot chilli recipe and all the outfits you made for the reenactments. Words cannot express how sad we feel for you and your family. I'm sure he has already found his place in heaven. God bless your family. Sandy & Art Bartlett.

Judy,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family...God Bless you Dan...
"Keep Heaven Laughing"...

Thoughts and prayers to Judy and family. Dan made re-enacting fun for the re-enactors as well as spectators. Listening to Dan talk to the public from his deep knowledge and appreciation of history combined with his sense of humor was always so interesting. Dan's funny and insightful "running commentary" made you want to stay on your toes.

Judy,
We are very sorry to hear about Danny. I always enjoyed the family reunions, with his stories and hearty laugh. He will be missed. Our thoughts and prayers are with you!

I'm so sorry to hear that Dan has passed, what a shock! I'll miss seeing him at all the Pats games, always laughing and smiling after a win, always brutally entertaining while analyzing a loss. Dan will be missed, my thoughts and prayers are with you.

So sorry for your loss. I always think of the days at ummc. God bless you Judy.
