I will certainly miss much about Dan, from his wry wit to his extensive knowledge of electronics and organs. Blessings to the family at this time...May God and his angels walk with you until the day of the blessed reunion.

Dan was a good friend and was very helpful to me . I will miss him greatly. He found me alot of good organs and helped me keep them going.

Arlene and Andy, so sorry to see this news. Dan was always such a kind and caring person. He went out of his way to restore an old organ, mostly because he could see it was sentimental to me from my childhood. He even found a matching bench for it. I'll never forget his kind spirit. I know his suffering is over and he is in heaven and at peace. Thinking of you both.
