Millerton - Daniel Raymond Cuddeback Sr., 81, passed away on Saturday, July 27, 2019 at home. Dan was born to Ray and Marie Cuddeback on March 13, 1938 in Rochester New York. Dan grew up in the Rochester area until he met the love of his life Barbara (Hosier) Cuddeback who survives at home.

Dan loved spending time with his family, hunting, fishing and of course gambling with Barb. He loved mowing his lawn too short, swimming and sitting on the front porch with his birds, his wife and anyone who wanted to stop by for a beer. He loved watching the bears come tear his birdfeeders down so he could repair them the next day. More recently he loved watching the deer (doe and fawn) come eat his two apples off of his apple tree!! He also loved watching and talking to his 5 turkeys which he fed daily.
