Lita & Family,

We were shocked to hear the sad news that Dan passed away. Sorry for not being able to attend Dan's funeral services. Dan and I used to be in offices next to each other and I always enjoyed discussing with him on many technical subjects. From our talks, I knew that he was a great father and husband. May God give you and your family peace and help you overcome this difficult time. You are all in our prayers.

Lita & Family
Our deepest sympathy to you, the kids, and the entire family (Ed, Marilyn, Ellen, Sue & Ron). I must say, what a beautiful service you had for Danny at St. Pius. The message Father gave in his homily on What Cancer Cannot Do was very inspiring. Always stay close to Jesus and Mary, Lita, as they are the source of great strength.
Love,
Carol & Pete (Monkelbaan) Freeman

Lita, Ethan, Alyssandra and Isabella,

We are so very sorry for your loss. Dan was a pleasure to work with, and his presence has been missed here, and will continue to be.
I hope you will all always remember how very proud he was to be your husband and father. Pictures of the children plastered his walls at work - his family was his life.

Our deepest condolences and prayers during this very difficult time.

I am very sorry noticing that Dan passed away. Dan was always polite and very open minded to all kinds of aspects. Dan was an excellent engineer, intelligent team leader, nice colleague, wonderful husband, thoughtful father and a friend of mine. Please let me know whether there is anything I can do to help during this difficult time. Dan will be in my heart for ever. In deepest condolence

I know Danny though my Mother, Agnes. She has admired him as a husband and father. That is all that I need to know. No one would wish this upon a young family. If we all keep him in our memory, then he will always be there for his kids. All my love to Lita and the kids.

I was so sorry to hear about the passing of Danny. My family and I grew up just 6 houses down on N. French. He grew up with my youngest brother, Ang. May God give you and your family peace and comfort. I know he is with his mom and dad and at peace. You are all in my prayers.

My thoughts and prayers are with you this holiday season and always.

Dear Lita, Ethan, Alyssandra & Isabella,

I’ve had the pleasure of getting to know Dan these last three years as we have worked together and also dealt with his illness. I remember meeting all of you in happier times at the UOP picnic in 2008. I was struck by what a wonderful family you have and how clearly you all were the center of Dan’s life. I will always remember Dan as a very creative and competent engineer, a manager who cared deeply for his employees, and most of all a...
