Dear Lee, Greg and Family, It was always apleasure to meet and talk with your father. He will be missed. My condolences to the entire family on your loss. -Craig

I first met Dan in New Orleans through mutual friends and liked him immediately. I later moved to Ct and spent alot of time with the Killeen/Wharmby family. He opened his home to me and always made me feel welcome. To David, Greg, Lee, and the rest of the Killeen family I am truely sorry for your loss. He was a true New England gentlemen and he will be missed by many.

I had known Dan since the Branford revaluation in 1980. He was the favorite of the staff and the best company after work at a local establishment. I'll miss his charm and his humor.

I first met Dan in 1980 in Agawam when we were both employed by United Appraisal. He was quite the character, with a great sense of humor. He was very knowledgeable in his field, and was a great help to new employees. My thoughts and condolences to the Killeen family.

I worked with Dan many years at CLT. He was always a gentleman and a wry wit. Also, I never let the short hair fool me. I offer my sympathies to his family on his passing.

I met Dan in 1976 while working in the Waterford Assessors Office, he was with United Appraisal. And again in 1980 when I moved to the Old Lyme Assessors Office we worked together on a Reval. The last 5 years he has worked for our office doing his thing with Personal Property. To say Dan was a character is an understatement. He sure was a lot of fun to work with although his slow Irish pace sometimes drove me nuts! I will miss him greatly.

To the Killeen Family:
My deepest sympathy in the loss of Dan. I met Dan through the Assessor's Office in Old lyme Ct and it was always a delight to see him walk through the door wearing an array of crazy hats ready to take on the "towers" of Old Lyme. He will be sorely missed.

I hadn't seen Dan in a while and the fact I won't see him again saddens me. The world is diminished without him.

I've known Dan since the early 70's when we both worked for the United Appraisal Co. Dan was always thorough and enthusiastic when it came to appraising personal property. His aggressiveness in doing his job was always appreciated by the Assessor but not so much by the property owner.
Dan had been a consultant for the Town of Old Saybrook, Assessor's Office since 1998. In his own way, Dan would convince most property owners that his assessment was the correct one.
