Dan was one of the "brothers four" who I grew up with. Numerous memories over the years from childhood on up. I can still see him jumping off the garage roof into the pool in the old west end. Dan resembled his dad in many ways. He took our boys on a plane ride over Cedar Point many many years ago. So sad to see his life end so young. Our moms were best of mischievous friends ever since the Boy Scout years.
Our sympathies to the family and friends left behind.
Love,

I too was one of the folks Dan worked with through Silvon. It was fun to work with Dan and I learned so much from him. He talked alot about his son and was very proud of him. My condolences to all of his family.

Dan and I went to DeVilbiss High School together and he was always so sweet and nice to me. Never got to see him at the reunions but he was in my thoughts over the years. My sincere sympathy to his family and may happier times be ahead for all of you as you hold his memory close. Another TAD has left us, so sad at such a young age.

Dan and I went to college together and hung out quite a bit in our younger days. We always meant to get together and catch up, but never did. Dan was a great friend.
