Edward Dannan

When I think of Ed, I think of all the times our families spent together. All of the camping trips, the Friday and Saturday dinners, Christmas, Thanksgiving, the Christmas Tree Hunt, New Years Eve at the Santa Fe- the births of our children - the kids growing up, the campaigns, the politics, the fun of friendship and so much more. Miss you Ed. Love you Katie and Kelly - Shirley - I wish I had had more time to know you - but I know you made Ed very happy.

When I think of Judge Dannan the following comes to mind, Mentor. His whit, intelligence, patience and kindness fostered an environment of professional development and growth. I am fortunate and grateful for the opportunity to have known him.

Losing you brings much sadness and fond memories. As your secretary in the Civil Division of the District Attorney's Office our workload could be difficult at times -- amending the building, electrical, plumbing codes. Only your unique management style and unfailing sense of humor made it bearable. Thanks for a great work experience and a friendship that will never be forgotten. Annette

It was my pleasure to work with Ed during his tenure with the Washoe County District Attorney's Office. Ed was know for his measured, common sense counsel, and it was always a pleasure consulting with him. My thoughts and prayers go out to Shirley and his family.

I worked with Ed at the Legislative Counsel Bureau. He was such a great guy. Friendly, funny and full of life. So sorry to read of his passing.

Ed will be remembered as an extraordinarily gifted gentleman and a consummate professional. I am proud to have known Ed both professionally and personally. I will hold his memory in a very special place.

Ed was truly a standout in the legal profession particularly during his tenure on the bench. It was my privilege to know Ed both personally and professionally and his memory will remain with me. Rest in peace my friend.

I've never heard anyone say an unkind word about Ed Dannan. Rather, words such as "fair," "funny," and "caring" are most often used to describe his thoughtful, good nature. Ed is one of the most highly respected judges our area has ever known. A true gentleman and a trusted friend, he is an example to be followed. I am so thankful that I had the pleasure to know Ed. He will be deeply missed by all.
