Not sure what to say?

We LOVED Father Dan at St. Leo's Church in Lewistown. He was always so personable and gave great homilies. We missed him since 2014 when he moved to Great Falls. May he rest in God's arms forever.

My mom and Dad, Don & Betty Hardy,loved Fr Dan. They will welcome him with open arms.

I met Fr Dan at a Religious Educational Congress in Anaheim CA while I was still a priest for Los Angeles. He was with the owner of Marklin Candles and I was impressed with their product. I kept in touch on and off with him over the years and was able to see his beautiful church in Lewistown. I am sorry he died so soon. May his memory be eternal.
