Daniel Ray Friesner found peace after a three year battle with cancer on January 18th, 2025, at the age of 68. Daniel was a devoted husband to his cherished wife, Diana, and proud father to his beloved daughters, Briana (Andrew Allen) and Hannah. He is also survived by his siblings, Audrey Burger and Scott (Jodi) Friesner. Daniel is preceded in death by his daughter, Danielle Friesner; brother, Kenneth Friesner; and parents, Anne and Kenneth Friesner. Dan was loved and respected by many friends and family, who now surround his family with love as they grieve.
The Funeral Mass will be held at St Leonard’s Catholic Church (W173S7743 Westwood Dr. Muskego, WI 53150), on February 15th at 2:00 pm, followed by internment. Visitation will be held prior to Mass from 12:00 to 1:45pm. There will be a joyous gathering following Mass at Sandra’s on the Park (10049 W Forest Home Ave, Hales Corners, WI 53130). Please join us in celebrating and honoring the wonderful life of Dan as we share stories, laughter, and tears.
Donations will be given to St Jude’s Children’s hospital (https://www.stjude.org/), as it broke Dan’s heart to see children suffering with cancer. The family will also donate to Zilber’s hospice (https://www.advocatehealth.org/foundations/advocate-aurora) for the wonderful gentle care they provided to Dan and his family.
