He will be deeply missed yet lovingly remembered by all who had the privilege of knowing him.
Danny and I had some classes together and struck up a friendship and, like some, lost contact over the years. At the 50th reunion we rekindled our friendship and stayed in contact on FB, sharing life, politics and jokes. Last year, I was privileged to meet Debbie and told him I was happy he found love again. Dan was smart and witty and a deep thinker. He will truly be missed. RIP my friend.
tribute by Roseann (Post) SchnietzDan's wife had passed away shortly after I lost my wife. We were friends on Facebook and struck up quite a friendship, leaning on each other for support to heal the grief. As time healed the hurt, we found ourselves commenting on issues and common interests. I have grown used to seeing his name and was shocked at the report of his loss. He seemed to be enjoying life again. He will be missed.
