Together, Daniel and Becky had 3 children: Robert (Jessica) Schloss of Troy, Sheila (Randy) Bensman of Sidney, and Scott (Amber) Schloss of Anna. He is also survived by his seven grandchildren: Alyssa (Colton) Duckro, Ryan Schloss, Reagan Schloss, McKinley Schloss, Kyle Bensman, Henry Bensman, and Oliver Bensman.
