We were neighbors of Dan - we moved out in October 2022. I drove by the townhouses today and noticed a different truck in his parking spot, so we looked him up and found his obituary. So sorry to hear of his passing - Dan was always so friendly and gave our dog treats every time he saw her. When we talk about the townhouses, Dan is often brough up in conversation.
