Dan was a great friend, I have so many memories of great times with Dan and the group we ran with, you could find us at a Street Dance, Beer Garden at the Sweet Corn Festival or Solon Beef Days.. this guy put his friends on a pedestal. Take your wings and fly my friend!!

You have my deepest condolences and sympathy. Dan was a very smart electrician. I worked with him on 2 different big jobs in the last 5 years and he was always well respected by the other 405 members on the job for his experience and work ethic. He will be missed.
