RIP Dan

Gone but not forgotten.

I had heard that Danny passed and was so sad to hear but it sounds like Debbie and Tim did a good job making him and Bonnie the best Grandparents any children could wish for. I have so many fond memories of Okinawa and the wonderful family that took me in when I needed a family! I felt so bad not keeping in touch but that is a young thoughtless girl I was! Not really I remember Danny going into the Masons and activities with Rainbow girls with Debbie. Thank you Danny andfamily for all you...

I have been looking for Dan for a number of years. I served with Capt. Dan at the Marine Barracks, Security Section, Shipyard in Portsmouth, Va. in the mid-late 60's. He & Bonnie had the 2 kids which I babysat a couple of times. I found him & Bonnie in Annapolis in the early 70's but lost track of them. I really thought a lot of & respected Dan. My sympathy to Bonnie and their family. Semper Fi'

I was a classmate of Dan's at the Naval Academy.

My connection with him was that of a 17-year-old rube from central Louisiana, who arrived at the Naval Academy Induction Day (although it wasn't called that back in 1959) on July 7, 1959, with about 1200 other would-be midshipmen. After all the ceremonies and logistics were taken care of, we were assigned to certain squads, platoons, and companies...and the Plebe Summer Company Commander for my company was Dan Hitzelberger.

I am saddened to learn of Dan's passing. We served together in 1/7, both in California and Viet Nam. In was a great Marine and will be missed.
