I was an apprentice electrician when I first met Dan back in the early 80s. Later working at McCormick Place, during lunch time you always knew when Dan was working on the floor,as you could hear him blowing
either a duck or goose call, echoing the convention center. I will always think of him when I am
waterfowl hunting. So long my friend.

Lany family, I'm not sure if you remember me. I was a neighbor for many years across the street on Lake Avenue with my daughter. I learned just today of your father's passing. So so sorry to hear that. He was much too young to leave this world. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you. I, too, just lost my father a few months ago. It is so hard to lose a loved one. Blessings to you.

It is with a heavy heart that I send my deepest sympathy to you Charlotte and your family. I always told you both that you were two of my FAVORITE PEOPLE when you came into the bank, that was and will always be a true statement. I can still remember all the soups you guys shared with me. They were delicious. I send you my prayers with hugs your way. Take care and God bless.
