TO ALL WHO HAVE SIGNED THIS GUEST BOOK: Betty & I are the proud parents of Dan & Vince. With a great deal of sadness, we find ourselves in this position. With a very heavy heart, we will try to express our our gratitude to all who have taken the time to sign in their condolences. We do take much pride in that our "Boys" seemed to have made good impressions on many of their friends and mates. The void that they have left will never be fulfilled, but thier memories will live on. A sincere and heartfelt THANK YOU to all!! B & J Farina

I graduated in 1986 with Dan. I remember him as always smiling. "Vinnie" was the same...he always had a big smile to share. My thoughts are with all that knew them.

All who care, most importantly to Dan,

The first day I met you, I worked my first day at Humpy's.I asked Humpy if I could kick you out and he said, "I knew you would". Directly after, you chased me around on your knees asking for a "jumping jack." You were OUT. OH how we all laughed, you were soooo cute! I couldn't wait until tomorrow (I still can't). We spent at least five days a week together for almost a year. I never had to ask you twice to help me, except when you were being a smart aleck. You protected me, entertained me and loved me. I still can't stand 3:00p "Jerry Springer", "NASCAR", or your pints of BUDLIGHT...I always gave you BUD anyways, HAHA! I am honored we have been friends all these years. I'll see you on the other side, because we don't say goodbye, WE SAY "SEE YA".... DAN, I'LL ALWAYS LOVE YA... THE PRETTY LADY
