I hope you are truely watching over me like i think you are. I wish you could be here with me to see how much i have changed and how much ive grown as a person.

I will never stop loving you. I am living my life for you dad"& maybe they arent really stars in the sky but rather opening where our loved ones shine down to let us know they are happy" (i love when the stars shine bright, i know ur looking down)

I thought about you alot today while it rained this morning. you loved storms. everytime theres a bad one now, i think about when i'd be freaking out over nothing and you'd always tell me "you cant change the weather, you just learn to deal with it." I dont mind storms much now, i know its one of the ways your telling me your watching us. i miss you so much daddy. i love you.
p.s. Brady is named for you, he's so playful you would have loved him.

During this time of mourning, I would like to express my sincere condolence at the loss of your loved one. May you find comfort in persistent prayers, as “the peace of God that excels all thought will guard your heart and your mental powers.” [Phil. 4:7] I certainly hope that the help God can give at this time will make a difference.

Dear Zavatter Family,
I am sorry for the loss of your husband, father, and brother. You all have my deepest sympathy and are in my prayers. Though I had only briefly met "Melanie's Dad" once, I feel like I knew him because of all of the memories she has shared with me. May your memories and the support of family and friends comfort you during this difficult time.
Much love,
Danie Tardie

I would just like to send my thoughts to all of Melanie's family and her mother up in NJ. I work with Melanie here in VA and have met Kim only once and well- I never got to meet Mr. Zavatter but I felt as if I did know him through all the stories Melanie would tell at work-- how she was named (we have the same middle name by the way) and some cool stories of Melanie's high school years and growing up. I feel as if I know all of you! I am a veteran as well from the US Navy (Hospital Corpsman) and feel that military bond as well. I just wanted to write a little (I am on my lunch break:) Please know you all are in my thoughts!

Zavatter Family,
We are so sorry for your loss. Words cannot explain our sympathy. We knew Dan for a long time and we know he was a great man. He was a rough and tough no nonsense type of guy who got great results in everything he did which includes raising one of the best men I know in Jaired. What he did for his country, community, friends, and loved ones will have an everlasting impact. We are so sorry and want you to know that we are here for all of you for anything you may need.

Zavatter Family,
I am so sorry for your loss. I have known you all since I was 5, through good times and bad, and I think of you all as a second family. Dan was a great man, who tried to help me land a job out of college, and always opened his house when I (or anyone one of us) needed a place to crash. He also raised one of the best people I know, Jaired. Dan also tried to make his community a better place by supporting the local rec council. His impact on his community, his friends and loved ones will be sorely missed.
Thanks for everything.

THIS IS TOUGH...MR. ZAVATTER, WHEN I WAS GROWING UP, I ALWAYS A KNEW YOU AS A GREAT FATHER AND A GREAT COACH. NOW THAT I AM OLDER I REALIZE HOW GREAT OF A FATHER AND COACH YOU ARE BY LOOKING AT YOUR SON JARAD AND SEEING THE MAN HE HAS BECOME. THAT IS A LEGACY THAT EVERY MAN SHOULD LEAVE FOR HIS SON. THANK YOU FOR THAT LIFE LESSON. I WILL MISS YOU...LOVE, BREEN.
P.S. THE PADRES ARE MY SECOND FAVORITE BASEBALL TEAM! ALSO, THANKS, FOR LETTING ME CRASH ON YOUR COUCH ALL OF THOSE TIMES.

Mr Zavatter was a man of dedication, morals, and kindness among many things. His reach shows through all the people who have ever met him and been close with him. Hey, even I've learned a thing or two from him and I can honestly say, I'm a better person because of him. It's sad that he had to leave this earth so suddenly, leaving behind a loving family and many friends. But I am certain tho, he will be watching over all those people that he loved and those that loved him. Rest in Peace to a great man, father, and role model..... Mr Zavatter

Kim and family,
As it always seems that sorrowful times bring families together, I hope you take some relief in knowing that I will do my best to always keep in contact with all my cousins and family that I got to see this weekend. I am sure that would make Uncle Danny very happy. May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived. It was so apparent that he was loved by so many and has a great legacy with so many beautiful children and grandchilden. He will be in our hearts forever.

Mrs. Zavatter and Family,
I had the pleasure of working with Dan many times over the years beginning in 1997, while still on active duty, and since my retirement in my present job. Dan was always a true prince and helped all that he could. He will be sorely missed by all of us in Team HAWKEYE! Please accept my deepest condolences for your loss. May GOD be with you and help ease your great loss.

To Dans Family,
My deepest sympathy goes out to Kim and her family in our loss of dear Dan. I have worked with Dan for many years here at Northrop Grumman and had daily conversations with him first thing in the morning and lastly in the afternoon before I left for the day. He was a dear co-worker, very professional and a real great guy who will be missed tremendously. My prayers go out to you and your family. Dan rest in peace, until we meet again.
