I was blessed with the opportunity to occasionally work with Dan when i did overtime during his shift. I enjoyed his company and conversations because he was always comfortable to be around and had interesting things to discuss, even the small talk. I hope that Dan is looking down on all of us and truly realizes how many people cared about him and had great respect for him as well. Overtime will never be the same.

Dear Mr and Mrs Booth,

I had the privelige of knowing Dan thorough the program. As I am one of the clients. Dan is a wonderful caring and respectable individual. He not only was there for me in the good times but he helped me in the bad times. I am truly sorry. Dan was a wondeful MHA and person. I had many oppourtuinties to see that he truly cared about life and his family and all of his clients. I want to deeply express my sympathy to you and the rest of the family.

May you Rest in Peace Dan.

Mr. and Mrs. Booth and the entire Booth family,



I have worked with Dan for about a year. During that short time, I developed a deep admiration for him. Dan was a truly kind, compassionate, and caring young man. He was tolerant and accepting of others, and had an uncanny ability to know what was really important in life. I have learned many things from different people throughout my life. Professors, supervisors, co-workers, and mentors have all helped me to discover things I did not know or change the way I see things. Dan tought me something very different. He tought me that even though we measure success in life in so many ways; grades, diplomas, status, income, the true measure of success is in how we affect the lives of those around us. Some of us used to joke that "everybody loves Dan." In fact, that was very true. By that measure, your son was an overwhelming success. His absence brings sorrow and sadness to those who knew him and cared for him. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this time of loss.

I met Dan 12 years ago at Dunkin Donuts. (or was it Mr.Coffee then?) I was instantly attracted to this person who was filled with so much knowledge but never spoke. Someone who seemed to judge no one and was cool beyond "the cool kids". It was always a joy to have Dan as a friend and he made me smile everytime I saw him. Dan always made me feel accepted. He always had a good word and knew what to say to make people feel good about who they are. I cant count how many times I had hugged Dan, or how many times he would sit and chat with me when I was to drunk to do more than sit and chat. Dan never once disrespected me. He was someone who never asked for anything, but appreciated anything you gave him of yourself or otherwise.



The last time I spoke with Dan in person, he mentioned our first meeting. He remembered the shirt he was wearing that day and what we talked about. I was so impressed and it really made me feel special. I have a very deep and special love for Dan.



Booty was cool personified. He never got the credit he deserved. I will always regret not letting Dan know just how wonderful he was. My heart is breaking. I had thought about Booty recently and knew I missed him. I will forever regret not sharing that with him.
