Daniel J. Mattson

My sister couldn't have said it better. Uncle Dan was one of the most fun-loving, caring people I have ever met. He also made a MEAN corned beef!! :) You could hear his laugh from miles away. In addition to the Club Med and 4th of July memories, I will never forget having Uncle Dan over to our house after a White Sox game.

Mrs. Mattson, We are so sorry to hear about Mr. Mattson. Jett was so upset and sad when I told him today. He always had a special place in his heart for Mr. Mattson as you already know.

Mar, My condolences to you and your family on Dans passing.It doesn't seem that long ago when he and I were attending class at Tilden's satellite classroom located in Denny's coffee shop on 56th Racine.He was one of those once in a lifetime people you hear about. I dubbed him with the name "Ollie" in case you ever wondered where it came from. Sorry I couldn't be there.Terry Heiden

Aunt Maryrose and Danny,
I am so sorry, I will always remember the fun vacations we went on. My favorite memory is when Danny and I were jumping on the bed and the "manager" called our room to yell at us. My prayers go out to you and if you need anything I am here.

Danny and Mrs. Mattson, I am very sorry to hear of the passing of Mr. Mattson. My thoughts and prayers are with your family. Gayle (Soria) Robitz
