He is survived by his mother, Leona McRoberts of Tucson, AZ and his daughters, Lorre Wisham of Tucson, AZ; Heidi (Scot) Dean of Millerton, NY and Kelli (Mike) Smith of Houston, TX and his step-children, Ron (Jennie) Silvas, Nicole (Armando Guzman) Silvas, and Erika (Jerrell) Bryant.

He spent the past 20 years working part-time at HDS Professional Driver Services where he had many friends and enjoyed his work. He enjoyed collecting coins and guns and spending time with the people he loved. He spent a lot of time rebuilding his beloved El Camino and was very proud of it. He was a fantastic cook and the amazing spaghetti dinners he cooked for his grandchildren's birthdays will never be forgotten! He was a great father, grandfather, great-grandfather, neighbor and friend. The family would like to extend our deepest thanks to Kathy Brooks and Marsha Moses for their tireless support and assistance with our dad's care. We would also like to thank Arizona Oncology, specifically, Dr. Brooks and PA Linda Moors for their compassionate care. There will not be a public service.

To all of Dan's family, I was so sorry to hear of Dan's passing. Dan and my mom worked together on East Fishkill IBM where I also got to know him. He was one of the most compassionate and understanding people I ever met. He was also a little crazy, but that is what everyone loved about him. I will miss you my friend - RIP Dan, I will always keep the memories close. Shorty

To My Father In law, When I first met you I knew exactly what I was getting into by marring Kelli. No BS, up front and straight forward. I wouldn't have had it any other way. I know I have big shoes to fill. Like you, I hope I can give my (3) girls and their children the life experience and advice you shared with yours. You understood nobody can be perfect, You can only be who you are. I completely agree. You were always blunt and real with me and I respected that good or bad. In our short time together we made a bond between each other that will last me a life time. Just know ALL your girls are in good hands here in Texas and if Arizona, California and New York need me I'm there. Every morning I wake up and look into the eyes of the Love of My Life and I thank you for that. You did a great job and I hope I can fill those shoes just as well.

P.S.
It's a hundred and six miles to Chicago, we've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses.

HIT IT!!!!!!!!!!!

Dan was one of my friends at the gym. We would chat while riding the stationary bikes. He was always friendly and took the time time to get to know me. He will be missed at the gym. Mindy
