After his retirement he decided he still wanted to keep going, and bought, and transformed Mountain Laurel Plaza, in Bethel Ct, which he was so proud of. He was loved and respected by all his tenants, and treated them with such kindness. He had so many friends near and far, and there where so many times his family would run into someone that knew him, and we were always told, what we already knew, what a terrific man he was. He was proceeded by his parents, and his son Michael, who he missed dearly. He is survived by his wife Charlene (Young) Dannin, his daughter Jennifer Dannin, and his son Victor Dannin (Sheri). He cherished his granddaughters Samantha ( Lehto) Dannin, her husband Eric, and Jessica Dannin. His great grandchildren Eliana, Sebastian, Caden, and Miles. He will be sorely missed by many.
