A Poem written by his sister Tara Schlehuber- Johnson

Free Spirited Driver

Free Spirited Driver- Always racing toward the sun

Free Spirited Driver - never crawled

2 / 2

but learned to walk, then run

Free Spirited Driver - every bit

his father's son - who called him

Tasmanian Devil and Demon Dan.

His admiration for him was second to none.

Free Spirited Driver - whose heart

was only known to one

Free Spirited Driver - so kind and

so giving, would do anything for anyone.

Free Spirited Driver - has left a

blazing trail in his final race toward the sun

Free Spirited Driver who has left us all

behind – much too soon and far too young.
