To Lanie and family, I was so sorry to hear of Dan's passing...I remember first meeting Dan when my Daughter Kari Ann and I stopped by your place one evening after work...finding out that Dan was a carpenter (union #291) like myself and my two sons Todd and Justin Patrick.. We sure had a lot to talk about.. Dan and you Lanie could not have been more gracious to us...Of course we stayed until after Midnight....We had to call Justin to pick us up...We had such a good time - talked about Our Beloved Todd / and the old days.... Dan, you will be surely missed....I'm sure you and Todd will become fast friends in Heaven.. Lanie, May Our Lord Bless you and your family........God Speed Dan....

Lanie and family, Dan was always a happy face to run into there wasn't a time we could remember that he didn't treat us like a great friend.
