Dan was larger than life in every aspect and he enjoyed his life the very same way. When he arrived, the good times arrived with him. His love for fishing could not be measured. His love for food and his skill in the kitchen could not be matched. He put his heart and soul into everything he did. He found laughter in every day and shared it with everyone. He was someone you wanted to be around and was always one to help. He was bold, honest and stood up for what he believed in. He always wanted the best for his family and friends. Dan built a wonderful life filled with people who loved him and who will carry those memories forever. His absence will be noticed and his presence will be missed dearly.
