I knew Dan from my early years on when we sold litho supplies in the NYC area. He was always the knowledgeable gentleman and I have nothing but good memories. I am so sorry to hear of his and his wife's later health troubles and their passing. My sincere condolences.

Dan and I spent many an afternoon over a 'business' lunch and shared the rigors of many trade shows. Our history goes back to the 1970's. He always brought a sense of good humor, a ready smile and helpful industry insights. He made a great contribution to my life.
Sharing Christmas parties in the 'old' days and exchanging annual Christmas Greetings over the many years since, Dan and Barbara are deeply seated in my memory banks of good times and good friends. I wish them well as they continue their unending journey together, hand in hand and heart to heart. Lord, you got a couple of real 'good' ones this week.
Rest in peace dear friends.

Barbara and Dan were a special part of the Madison Ave Family in Clifton, always bringing fun and livening up every gathering. I recall how loving and compassionate they were in helping my family deal with my Dad's sudden death in 1964. May they continue to bring joy from their new perch in the celestial realms. God bless them, they will be greatly missed. Fr. Dennis Crowley

I'll miss coming home late after hours at the shore house and finding Dan and Barbara still up, playing cards; waiting to hear about our night out.
