Daniel S. Surina

13 years seems just unreal. I dream about you a lot. I miss you every day and I think about you as often as I miss you. I think about where we would be right now and what we would be doing. I miss you, brother.

Dan coached Little League with me for a number of years. A fun and positive person. We stayed in contact for years. Great memories.

I was working some football games this weekend, and talking to one of my referee friends about his son who passed away prematurely. and having lost a brother many years ago, also before his time, I fondly remembered Dan. Dan use to call me Stevie even though I was 15 years older than him, but loved his sense of humor and kindness. I still think about him, and miss him, along with the other people I have lost,
including my mother several months ago. Take care of mom, Dan.

I miss you Daniel. You made me a better man. You were always my friend. I can't believe you are gone. I hate it. I am sorry I was not always there for you - like you were for me. You were my best friend. This link of SRV's song will ALWAYS remind me of our good times together. So many places, so many experiences, so many good times we shared. I love you.

The thing I remember most about Dan was his willingness to make me feel like I was a part of the team even though I was the youngest. It meant a lot to me at the time and as I think back it means a lot to me now. I am, and will continue to pray for you guys.

Ann and Family,
I am so very sorry for your loss. I have not seen Dan in many years, however I must admit that I had tried to locate him several times. I can't believe he lived so close, and we had so many things in common from gaming and sports to community service and the Hood to Coast. Dan was my first love, and will always hold a special place in my heart. He was a kind, funny, and joyful young man - and it sounds like that remained through his life. I can't remember him without...

I just learned about Dan/Meco's passing. He was a fine friend, and we in LoV will miss him tremendously. I am sorry for your loss.

Dan "Meconopsis" Surina was a man of generosity, inner strength and humor. I only knew him through an alternate world... but given the strong impression he made on me online, I can only imagine how he touched the lives of those who knew and loved him in real life. Rest in peace, brother. You are sorely missed.

Ann and Sue, I am so sorry for your loss of Dan. May God grant you peace and comfort. Carla Johnson
