Daniel J. Wilkinson

Very sorryu to hear of Dan's passsing. He was a mentor and a best friend during our years at Sealed Power. I have tried to keep his grive and imagination alive in my heart althiough I HAVE BEEN OUT OF TOUCH FOR SEVERAl years now. My condolences and best wishes to Patti and the family.

I have many memories of Dan at my parents, Roger & Blanche Dykehouse, home on Spring Lake. There was always Snowmobiling and fishing. He and my dad would work for hours in the garage getting ready for snowmobile races. He was a lot of fun. I still have books Patti gave me when I was a teenager. I have no doubt he was a wonderful dad. Let your wonderful memories help you through your grief.

Bruce always learned so much from his conversations with cousin Dan, as Dan was so knowledgeable about mechanical things which Bruce enjoyed too. We remember the fun family reunions at Dan´s house. Dan would have a twinkle in his eye as he invited Bruce into the barn to look at his latest project!

My sincere condolences to Patti and the girls. Dan was a very fair boss to me. We had some interesting and laughable conversations. I´m sure there is a special place in heaven for Dan.

Rest in pease my friend. Such fond and enjoyable memories

Patti, My condolences. Dan was a great guy - the BEST! He was a big help to me at Sealed Power and one of my biggest supporters, and I believe I was the same to him. I have many fond memories of you and Dan, including your fireworks parties, dining together in Germany and our dinners with the Wetzels, Barcrofts, Willeys, Smiths and Zagottas. Dan is in my prayers. My best to you Anna and Cara.
