His enthusiasm extended to his fantasy football team, where he relished the camaraderie and competition it brought into his life.

Above all, Daniel was a dedicated father who was deeply involved in the lives of his two autistic daughters. His unwavering love and support were a testament to his character, and his devotion to their happiness and wellbeing was unparalleled.

In addition to his parents, Daniel was preceded in death by his siblings; Donald Mehl Jr., and Debra McGinnis.

(Moore) Mehl, beloved daughters; Emilee Josephine Mehl and Daniele Erica Mehl, brother, David (Jill) Mehl Sr., of Shadyside Ohio, sisters in law; Donna (Bill) Hicks of Mt.
