I enjoyed working with Dan. He always had a funny (as he called it) to tell me everyday. He enjoyed making everyone laugh. Praying for you, Peggy and the family as you go thru this difficult time.

I had the pleasure of playing tennis with and against Dan many times. We enjoyed reminiscing about our time together as doubles partners. He was always a lot of fun to be around and Dan had an indomitable spirit to be a tennis competitor. He´ll be missed.
