Dan, It was 1 year ago today that you left us and there hasn't been a single day go by that I haven't thought about you and wished that things would have turned out differently. I miss you so much!
Was it you that ordered the beautiful summer so the guys could ride almost everyday? I thought so! You wouldn't believe how many conversations you are brought into and how many times I've said "this would've been so much easier if Papa were here". Ride on my precious brother and I will see you again one day. Love, Sally

Dad,
Today is fathers day so HAPPY FATHERS DAY. this is the first one with out you and we all are missing you like crazy. Today was beautiful and there were a lot of people out on their bikes. I know that if you were here youd of been one of them. It saddens me everytime i hear a motorcycle becuz it makes me think that maybe just maybe youll be riding in the driveway, but we both know that isnt going to happen. I had Zoe the other day and she kept tellling me that she misses PAPA and she wishes you were here, as we all do. Things just arent the same, I MISS YOU SO MUCH i just dont understand why God had to take you. It just isnt fair, but i know there will come aday that i get to see you again. until then RIDE ON AND RIDE FREE.....I LOVE YOU DAD Happy Fathers Day....
Always and forever in my heart
I LOVE YOU DAD love Jenny

Something I wish would of happened years ago. Dad theres so many things that I want to say to you, but most of all I wish I sould look at you one more time and tell you how much I LOVE YOU and how much you mean to me. Things just arent the same without you. Things will never be the same. I wish I could turn back the clock and do something to keep you here with us. The boys are getting so big Zach just had his 2nd birthday Alex turned 1, Aunt Michelle had a baby. So many things have changed I just wish you were here..You'll never know what you really meant to me I LOVED YOU MORE THAN ANYTHING......Ride on and Ride free...... I LOVE YOU always in my heart forever JENNY

Dad,
Today you would have been 56 and I'm sure acting like your crazy self. I just wanted to wish you a Happy Birthday and let you know that I love and miss you so much. Alex is going to be one next week and it makes me sad to know that you are not going to be there. I tell him about you all the time. I want him to know all about his crazy grandpa and how much he loved him. You will forever be in my heart. I love you dad!!!

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

Dad, its only been 3 weeks since you've been gone and i miss you like crazy. Never in a million years did i think hearing you talk over Labor day weekend would be the last time i ever heard your voice. I know we went thru alot over the years, but i wouldnt change one minute of the last year and a half that i got to spend with you. I love you so much, I promise you that we will always tell the grandkids stories about their PAPA DAN. YOu should see Zach when he comes over here or when he sees a picture of you he goes crazy. WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH. RIDE ON DAD RIDE ON...till we meet again I LOVE YOU......JENNY

Dan,
I'm so sorry we were not there in your last moments but you were riding with us in the mountains of Arkansas! We found a really cool place to have chow and you would have loved it! Thanks for sharing your many secret back roads with us, we enjoyed every ride we all took together, good times and good friends. You will always be remebered as we ride the countryside. I also want to thank you for your support while I struggled with my cancer! You were always smiling and I loved that about you!
RIDE ON!

Hi-Dee-Ho neighbor
We lost you little buddy this week way too early. Thank you Dan for being our best friend and neighbor. You will never be forgotton but will forever live in our hearts. I bet today everyone up there is meeting at the gate, at around noon, to take off on another adventure with you in the lead. Maybe you will find the deer with those sun glasses on just up around the next bend,...and how did you ever find all those back country roads and all the great places to eat? You are amazing! We are not really sure how to get past this one little buddy our hearts are broken, but you are now at peace. I guess your two hours are up now. RIDE FREE and the next time we meet can we go for a $1.00 burger somewhere? Thanks for being a big part of our life. This bud's for you!

In My Pocket
I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.
September 23, 2009
I first met Danny in the second grade and although we rarely got together over the years he was a lot of fun when we did. My sympathies to Danny's family. He will surely be missed.

In memory of your Father/Brother/Friend. When the joys are still remembered, but the sorrow has quietly gone, there will always be a special place in the heart~where love lives on. A quote from Dan..."I love you all the way around the moon and back and sometimes more than that".
A tribute to a man that will truly be missed and memories treasured. My heartfelt sympathy to family and friends.

To the Fisher Family:
I knew Danny back in High School, and he was a wonderful friend. A few years later, I moved to a house on Hayes Avenue, and was surprised to find Danny living two blocks from me. Even then he was a good friend and helped me a lot.
Keep good memories of him, he was a good person.
Sorry to hear of Dany's passing,

September 22, 2009
Dan was a life long friend that I met when I was 5 years old. I could write a book of memories. We were in 1st grade together and there after through high school. We really got to know one another when his father and mine got us both involved with them in Indian Guides. I could go on and on but the most important thing for me is the friendship we had. Dan will always be my brother.
With all my love and condolences to Sally, his Children,Grandchildern,
