I was saddened to hear about Uncle Dan's passing but know he had a good life. I will always remember the family gathering around the table playing '31' and his laughter. Thank you to my mother, Susan, for taking such good care of Uncle Dan during his illness. He was blessed to have a sister and a friend who cared. I am unable to attend the funeral but my thoughts and prayers are with my family.

My Great-Uncle Dan, a fellow combat veteran- was a true warrior in combat, life, and in sickness.. Uncle Dan shared the same passion for model aircraft, just the same as my son Josef Kleba (his great-great-nephew), and he graciously passed down one of his own model airplanes used long ago by Uncle Dan and his brother, my late grandfather Edwin Kleba. I was deeply honored to spend some time with him during his last days.. I will miss him dearly...
