Well I was feeling nostalgic this holiday season and Dan came to mind. I studied under him at ASU 30+ years ago and am stunned that I´m just learning of his passing.
My thoughts go out to his family and friends.
Though I did not stay in the art field for long Dan, John Risseeuw and Kathryn Maxwell had a profound influence on my coming of age.
I loved his crass no BS attitude and lived him ripping me to shreds when it was completely called for! Something I´m certain wouldn´t fly today but absolutely built character in me! Love him for that.
He had a saying that stuck with me for a long time but, I´m ashamed to say, I´ve forgotten the last part.
It was something to the tune of " when you find yourself stuck somewhere between lethargy and ....."
I am certain that anyone who knew him will recall it and if you do, please re-wet my sponge.
Rest in peace professor

We will miss Dan. He was a great artist, a good friend, a seriously funny guy, and a wonderful husband to Judy. We enjoy his art every day, and the memories of his unique gifts.

I have fond memories of knowing Dan in the 70's after he returned from Vietnam and during college years. He was gifted in music, story-telling and fine art - and shared his talents generously (to the delight of many!). To Virginia, Linda and all of the Brittons, my heartfelt sympathies.

Dan was my husband's friend from junior high school, high school and beyond. He became my friend and oh what a friend he was! Such fun stories of the Corvair turned into a 4 wheel drive vehicle under the influence of a beer or two - not those two guys! - to our shared memories of loved books and authors! I'll never forget Dan's take on The movie Mars Attacks . Let's just say he didn't like it! Dan, you will be missed.
