Dan was an amazing man. So Humble and helpful with a great sense of humor. His impact was felt well beyond Boston or Tampa. He invested not only capital but he invested in people. Rest In Peace my friend. You will never be forgotten

My brother-in-law, Richard Thaler, worked with Dan at Bank of Boston and charged Dan with looking after me while living in Boston. Poor guy. He treated me like gold and stayed in touch for the next 40 years. Dan was so much fun to talk politics with and to learn history from and he was interested in what you had to say. An amazing and adorable man, he was truly a selfless person.
Thank you Betty for the neat service; loved hearing his friends and colleagues talk about him.

Dan was my manager in the Loan Officer Development Program at Bank of Boston. He was my first professional mentor and a good friend. Rest in peace Dan - you will be missed by all who knew you.

I loved Danny very much...We were undergraduates together at Tufts University. He was an amazing, kindhearted, intelligent man. He was a strategic genius...When we were fighting against the University for civil rights, Danny organized us like a Hannibal general. He was a genius who had a heart of Gold. Rest in Pea e my brother and Rise in Glory...You will be missed and eternally LOVED ♥

I've learned that people will forget what you said,
people will forget what you did,
but people will never forget how you made them feel

Dan,

It has probably been 30 years since our paths crossed at the bank. But, I remember you as a thoughtful, caring, sincere and gentle soul. The world was so much a better place with people of your character and demeanor. I wish I could have gotten to know you better. Look down on us from heaven.

Dan was one of the finest gentlemen I met in my half-century at Tufts: as a student, accomplished community contributor, and friend. He was one of a kind....
