Thank you to everyone for the kind words on my dad's passing. He was truly a remarkable person with a big heart and warm smile for anyone he came in contact with. Per his wishes, his ashes will be scattered in Lake Elsinore at the same location that his wife's Linda were scattered so that they will be together throughout eternity. In remembrance of my dad, please pass a friendly smile to everyone you come in contact with everyday, you never know how rough a time they may be having and that smile could make a big difference.

I was so shocked when I read of Dan's passing. So many great memories of Dan and Linda and all our years with the rodeo committee. You'll be missed my friend. I have many photos of them if the family would like to have them. I'd be happy to send them to you.
