Daniel Werner Frye

7/16/1948 - 10/20/2024

Dan Frye joined heaven's most glorious choir - where he is undoubtedly angling to become the director - on October 20, 2024. Dan devoted his life to music, obtaining his undergraduate degree from Miami University, and masters from BGSU. He started his career as a teacher with the Washington Local Schools, before opening his own music services business, Frye's Music Service: "We are Grand and Upright people!". Dan loved working in church music programs, especially at Christmastime, where he wrote and directed musicals performed by members of the congregation. Dan was a long-time conductor of the Zenobia Shrine Chanters; however, he would be most proud to be remembered for his deep faith in Christ.

Surviving to miss his presence as they practice their breathing and vocal warm-up techniques are wife, Sharon E. Hollins; children, Katie E. Frye, David K. Frye (Amy and granddaughters, Winifred, Willow, and River), Alec G. Frye (Carolyn), and Jillian L. Frye. As the single son in a family blessed with six children, Dan has always known to never underestimate the determination of a group of motivated women. He is survived by his five sisters, Pam Arnold (Everett), Karen Nelson (Richard), Louise Hill (Garry), Aprel Cornyn (Mike), and Debby Schenk (Wolf); and friend Sandra Kellogg. Dan was preceded in death by his parents, Holton and Frieda (Hoff) Frye.

There will also be visitation on Friday, October 25, from 10 a.m. to 11 a.m., at Epiphany Lutheran Church, 915 N. Reynolds Rd. Funeral services will immediately follow at 11 a.m. The family wishes that any donations made in Dan's memory go to Epiphany Lutheran Church.
