Dan was a friend of mine and one time room mate. He was a special, one of a kind, creative guy who will be missed terribly. My condolences go to his family and the many, many others who cared for him. The photo included is from Trivia, 2010, when he and I were on the team, "How Do You Know If You Don't Know?"

This is tragic news. Dan, Isaac & Scott were probably the most influential friends I had while growing up. They taught me to be true to myself, and Dan was certainly the model for authenticity throughout his life.

Dan, Diane, and John, you have my deepest sympathy. I am so sorry to hear of Daniels passing. The loss of a child, the loss of a brother, is the deepest sorrows. My heart goes out to you.

I first met Dan while he was playing in Mad Trucker in Stevens Point where I instantly fell for his awesome bass playing and stage presence. He was a wonderful person with a heart of gold and I will miss him dearly

I will always remember Dan as one of my very best friends in grade school and high school. He was extremely talented in so many ways.

It’s impossible to express the loss we all feel completely. Dan was prolific and involved in many artistic endeavors. He was a force of nature. I am glad I got to see him perform with Brainerd in October of 2020. This is one of the pics I snapped that evening. Rest in Power, brother.
