Daniel George Proce, a beloved father, grandfather, and great-grandfather, began his journey on December 1, 1944, in the vibrant city of Chicago, Illinois. After many years dedicated to a successful career in sales, Daniel made his way to Mesa, Arizona, where he enjoyed the beauty of the outdoors and the warmth of the sun.

Daniel had a passion for life that was evident in all he did. He found joy in the simple pleasures of camping, hiking, and spending time at the rifle range. His adventurous spirit led him to explore nature's wonders, relishing every moment under the open sky, and sharing these experiences with his loved ones.

Throughout his life, Daniel faced challenges with unwavering strength and grace. Despite suffering from Parkinson's Disease, he remained an inspiration to those around him, demonstrating resilience and a positive outlook in the face of adversity. His ability to find delight in life’s small moments was a testament to his character and left a profound impact on his family and friends.

Daniel is lovingly remembered by his surviving family, including his devoted daughter Ann Proce and son Douglas Proce. He took immense pride in his role as a grandfather to Nicole, Joseph, and Jamison, who brought him endless joy. Additionally, his legacy will continue through his six great-grandchildren, who will forever carry his memory in their hearts.

He will be joining his late son Joseph and his brother Nicholas, where they will no doubt continue their bond from beyond this world.

Daniel George Proce touched the lives of many and leaves behind a legacy of love, adventure, and stark determination. He will be sorely missed but fondly remembered by all who had the privilege of knowing him. May his spirit soar high and remain in the cherished memories of those he loved most.
