Minneapolis, Minnesota
Hase, Daniel James (May 30, 1953 - May 9, 2007), suddenly (while doing what he loved most), left us without intention. Dan is survived by his loving wife, Barbara Banks; 2 sons, Daniel (Rebekah) Banks and Jonathan (Hannah Bustin) Banks; grandson, Colton Banks; his mother, Helen Hase; brothers, Donald (Lori) and David; sisters, Anna Marie (Louie) Ferraro and Nancy Garcia; aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, great nieces & nephews, and the most beautiful, loving group of friends a man could ever ask for. Preceded in death by his father, Donald and brother-in-law, Augie Garcia. Dan grew up in Columbia Heights and was a 1971 Columbia Heights graduate. He was a long- standing member of the American Motorcyclist Association. He was an expert, skilled rider whose life was cut short while on his last ride. Dan enjoyed being a champion hill climber and a former District #23 member, as well as enjoying any day that offered a "friendly compete" mix with his boys or fellow dirt-bikers, regardless of location - at his home, dirt track, or some near or far away competition event... It was all he ever wanted to do: ride or play in the dirt. So many times Dan was always the first call for advice or ideas. He will be forever missed. Advocacy to government representatives and to the AMA in support of greater consequence for failure to yield actions is greatly appreciated! Visit the AMA website http://www.ama-cycle.org Private interment. Funeral service Tuesday, 1 PM, visitation Monday, 5-9 PM, and 1 hour prior to service at: Washburn-McReavy Columbia Heights Chapel 763.789.4436 4101 Central Ave NE

Dan loved being a kid whenever he could with his boys... always looking for any opportunity for fun and a quick laugh wherever they were!

In Tribute to your Memory Dan, (which is of course, embroidered in each of our hearts for life) I would like to share the following work of an 'Author Unknown'.
The author's poetic words clearly know of our outcry (which is particularly louder on special days like your birthday) about how we miss you.
I am certain you will agree Darlin' that these are words with more meaning then just poetry...
If tears could build a stairway
And memories were a lane

Wow!
I am not so sure I am liking this new look... (Trying to get used to it) Guess it will go along like all changes go along for me - (fairly slow!) - how'bout you? You like it? (sure you do! It's blue!)
(There I go again, talking to you - it's just second nature for me - talking to you.
We Miss You, Every Day; and every day is a new day for muddling and sorting through how to make this work peacefully together and individually, (which finally seems to be going in a...

Everyone received one of these stickers (many thanks to Barb Guy)!
May 30th ...
Today would be your 55th birthday - Happy Birthday Baby!
The other day I came across three different items (three different times, all in the same day! - don't think that wasn't weird! It was!)
-Anyway -
each of the items had been a birthday gift from me to you.
Ya'know, I think you would have finally got that small travel floor jack you been wanting to replace (probably for last year's birthday - certainly for this year)!
