Dan Aro Obituary
February 15, 1959 ~
March 2, 2025
Soda Springs, ID-In the event of my death this should be known by all!
I have been lucky enough to have met and known some amazing people whom I will always cherish.
We were lucky enough to be blessed with an awesome son, who I dearly love!
Marian and I had 32 years of marriage, love, laughs and tears. I can't thank her enough for the time we had together!
To all that remain, remember that life is a one way bus ride, we just don't know when or where our stop is.
Remember to always follow the three "L"s of life. Live, Love, Laugh. All else is meaningless.

I met Dan when I first started working for Central in West Valley. We became friend, my brother, Dan, and I would talk for close to an hour every night. We talked about the normal, he always said that he had to go, get food for he and his wife. We talked about rebuilding his truck, he loved his truck, and it was a beautiful one. He loved Jeff Dunham, he liked all the characters but loved Walter. We became good friends. Everything I said make we want to cry. I hope someone is looking in on his wife, I can't believe he's gone. You were awesome Dan, truly loved, and will be truly missed until we see one another again someday. My prayers goes to his family, you guys will see him again and if you need anything at all please let me know

Dan and I met when we both worked for Central Body Shop in the mid 90's. We became good friends spending many days in the field hunting pheasants with his son Preston. Later on We both worked for Venturas Body and Paint. Dan was a very talented body man, and could repair almost anything. He will be missed by many,RIP my friend.

Wow, I just thought of Dan the other day as I drove passed Central Body Shop. I worked with Dan at the auto auction when I decided to start collecting license plates. I had all the states but one, Maryland. Dan found a collector and purchased one from him to complete my collection and denied payment for it. That's the man he was. Amazing after 20 years I still recall the impact he made. RIP my old friend.

I grew up across the street from Dan. On Crestwood Dr. He always came with positivity and humor. So many childhood memories. Dan always took time to call and stay in touch over the years. I even had the privilege to babysit Preston when he was a baby.
Preston- sending you so much love during this difficult time. Never forget Rich and I are always here for you. Your dad will be missed.

Dan and I met in the early 2000´s. He painted two of my restored vehicles, 1981 Turbo Trans Am and 1964 Cadillac Convertible , both Show Cars as though they were his own. Marian was pure delight, what an admirable couple. The world has an empty hole in it. The legacy of them is now held in Preston, what a gift.

Marian,
Please accept my sincere sympathy regarding the passing of Dan. He worked for my late husband, Dwayne Axtell at Alta Body Shop, for a few years in Murray, Utah. He painted a few cars for me. Beautiful work.
