Dear family and friends of Dan,
I knew Dan from Maria House Projects' Diocesan Lodge and LSS Seminars. He was a tender, compassionate, and spiritual young man. His deep love for his mother was very touching, and he always had a kind word. Thank you for being part of his life and helping him through his struggles... I will always remember Dan with fondness and gratitude for knowing him, even if only for a brief time. God bless you.
