Daniel Rosales Obituary
October 29, 1961 - October 10, 2024
Daniel Luciano "Dan" Rosales, 62, of Moline, passed away Thursday October 10, 2024, with loved ones by his side. A Celebration of Life will be held for friends and family at Wendt Funeral Home in Moline, Saturday October 26th between 1 - 4 p.m.
Dan was born October 29, 1961, in Moline, IL to Deloris and Amador Rosales. He graduated Moline High School in 1979. Dan grew up with a love of nature and the outdoors, camping, boating, and water skiing on the Mississippi River with friends. He also loved sailing on Lake George in summers, and planning ski trips to Colorado in the winter. Whether riding road or mountain bikes, motorcycles or ATV's he was always up for a challenge and fun.
He learned the art of welding from his dad. For decades they worked together at Central Welding Service in Rock Island, along with his mom. Dan eventually became the owner and operator before venturing into other work.
Above all, Dan enjoyed spending time with family and friends and will be greatly missed. His humor was unmatched with his quick wit, one-liners, facial expressions and gestures to share his stories. We will all miss his sweet nature and gentle soul.
His memories will be cherished by so many including his daughter Luc; his siblings, Steven A. Rosales (Jennifer), Philip Rosales, Cyndi Purcell, Veronica (Eliot Moskow), Christina (Bill Bargmann); and many beloved nieces, nephews and cousins.
Dan was preceded in death by his parents Deloris and Amador Rosales.
