I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Dan was a great neighbor and classmate. I have many good memories of Dan and his brothers from my Lindenwald days. My mom and dad were also very fond of Dan. May he live on in the good deeds he performed and the memories that you have of him. God bless you.

Kathy and family,
I went to school with Dan but left town in 1973 going in the military & lost track of everybody. From what I'm reading he had a very good life but too short.

Kathy, Patrick and Kenny,
Our deepest sympathies and prayers go out to you at this time. We enjoyed Dan being the basketball coach with Logan and having fireworks in our front yard at Fourth of July. Your Daddy was quiet but we knew he was always looking after all of you and very proud of your accomplishments.
We will always be with you and here for you. We have enough toys and love for all of you! : > )
We will keep you in our prayers,
Stephen, Carrie, Ian, Logan, Evan and Austen Goddard
