Not sure what to say?

I'll never forget his wonderful outlook on life, his laugh and his friendship. I'll miss him.

I will always remember Dan's integrity, his passion for what was right. He had a laugh that was second to none and a sense of humor that always shined at just the right moment. My life was truly blessed just to know him.
Psalm 5 vs 12 says "Surely, Lord, you bless the righteous; you surround them with your favor as with a shield." I believe Dan has been surrounded by favor..... Dan Holtje (Lima, New York)

Dan will be missed greatly, but he left everyone that knew him with a message to always enjoy life and be the best person you can be. His way was to lead by example. His method was to maintain a very high standard: of ethics, of morality, of compassion, of heart and of soul. Thank you Dan, we were listening.

Dan made business feel more like friendship. His positive energy and perseverance was an inspiration. Truly missed but never forgotten.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Dan was a good friend and coworker who will be missed more than one knows. He was always there for me and I will never forget him, he was truly a special person.

Dan was one of our first friends when we bought a cottage on Log Cabin Road back in 84'. Over the years we have had many bonfires down by the beach, singing, laughing and telling stories. Barefoot skiing at midnight and watching the shooting stars during our Anniversary on his Master craft. Dan will forever be in our hearts and memories and he will be sorely missed. Steve, Kathy, Kelly and Todd

Dan was a good friend, a good man and mentor. Even in a disagreement he could bring a smile to your face. The world seems a smaller place without Dan.
