Not sure what to say?

I am so sorry to hear of Dan's passing. May your good memories of him live forever in your heart.. I have fond memories of you both in Stonebridge and of you in Bookclub. My heart goes out to you.. Marilyn and Richard Forman

Barbara & Family,
Bob and I send our sincere condolences. We join so many others at Stonebridge Country Club with happy memories of Dan. May all your happy memories ease the pain of your loss.
