Dana Bircher McClellan

I just learned of Dana´s passing. I am so saddened and give my love to Campbell and Liam. She was a fantastic mother and a great lady all around.

Dana and I shared our love for ceviche and pizcos. Whenever she visited Miami Lakes we had dinner at a ceviche place with a larger group or just her an I to unwind from work. She was a great colleague always willing and able to get the job done. Above all things, she IS a good and kind soul. Rest in peace Dana. Love always Irene.

Zak, I am so sorry about this loss to you and your family. I just heard about this and am devastated. I wish I had taken the opportunity to visit with Dana on one of her many trips here to Ft Lauderdale.

Very shocked and saddened to hear about Dana's passing just last night. My heart goes out to her husband and children,Campbell and Liam. I met Dana at Benfield Elementary in Severna Park,Md. She was a great friend and I will aways cherish her friendship and the fun times we had biking and hanging out at St.Andrew's (Our local pool). I still remember in 5th grade we were in the group to do crafts (Latchhook in particular) because we didn't want to sing in the chorus. Even later in a life she was a great friend and reached out to me when my sister passed away a year and a half ago. Love you Dana and may you rest in peace.

Dana welcomed me with open arms when we first met, and we quickly bonded. As my respected superior, she guided and encouraged my growth. Over time, she became a trusted friend and advocate. Dana´s love for her family, faith, and vibrant personality left a lasting impact. I miss her messages and the joy she brought on a daily basis. My deepest condolences to her family. Dana was truly a special kind of person with a heart of gold and will be dearly missed. May she rest in peace.
Love,
Diane

Dana was more than just a co-worker at Capital One; she was a friend and a leader. Her contributions to our credit review team were exceptional, and she approached life with kindness and warmth. Dana's compassion went beyond her role, she was always there to help anyone in need. Her ability to make everyone feel welcome and valued was truly remarkable. She brought comfort and camaraderie to our team, and her generous spirit was a cornerstone of our work environment.

I will miss her deeply, not only for her contributions but for the caring, supportive friend she was. My thoughts and prayers are with Dana´s family during this difficult time.

I met Dana in 2016 as a consultant to review the work of Data Analytics. By 2018 she joined our group and became my leader. During our time working together she became almost like a mother and good friend to me. Her caring and thoughtful gestures when in time of need showed how wonderful a person she truly was. She always smiled and did not have a negative bone in her body. Dana you will be missed professionally and personally. May you keep shining wherever you are. Gone too soon

I´ve worked with Dana at BankUnited since she joined the Credit Review department in 2018. She was one of the most optimistic people I´ve ever met. No task was insurmountable. Her positivity was contagious and never felt fake or forced. Just a month ago at the end of July, our team met in Florida and Dana was the glue that brought us all together and combined business with fun. On a daily basis, she and I shared silly TikToks and Instagram posts and I will miss that friendship terribly. Dana, I will miss the sunshine that you brought into every meeting and conversation. Our team is devastated that you are gone and desperately wish we had had more time with you.

Our daughters were in school together and I met Dana through an event we both volunteered for. She always had a smile and made sure to talk to everyone who came in and made them feel welcome and included. She loved her family and was so proud of her children. I know she will be deeply missed by her family and community. Rest in eternal peace Dana you have left too soon.

I knew Dana's daughter through marching band and while I never got to talk with Dana herself, I know that she will be missed. Fly high </3

We found some early photos of our dear friend, Dana. A birthday celebration and a beach trip with our eldest, Sean.

Dana was our first friend when Terry and I moved to Charlotte in 1993. We had so much fun with her! Trips, Friday night happy hours, weddings, showers, etc... We are devastated that she is gone. We love you, Dana, and promise to look out for Zak.

I met Dana in early 2024 as we are both employed by same company. I have met few people that detailed out how her department conducted Analytics like Dana She was patient, understood tech, and just had a sweet voice. Thank you for the short but good memories Dana, we will fulfill your Analytics dreams!

I never had the honor of meeting Dana, but Zak is my fraternity brother. My thoughts and prayers are with the family.

Intelligent, caring, and giving. Rest in peace.

Dana was a good friend, coworker, and fellow fraternity wife with me. I knew her for years. She was so funny and kind, a person everyone wanted to be around. I am devastated by her loss. She was loved and revered by so many. Praying for Zak and the kids. Rest, my friend.

Dana and I met as Economics majors at Clemson in 1986. Her husband Zak is my fraternity brother.
