Mike and I offer our deepest sympathy to Dan's family and countless friends. What a very special person, so warm and kind, a seemingly ever-present twinkle in his eye. I'll always remember his ready smile, love of sharing laughter and the pleasure he took in helping others. We're grateful to have known you, Danny, and our Pinochle games won't be the same without you. You will be greatly missed, and we thank you for your service. Truly one of our greatest generation.
