Dan helped me a lot when I moved to Texas and I am grateful for the time we spent together trading bible verses and talking about how much the world is changing.

I am Dan‘s cousin Kathleen. I always felt like I was more like an aunt because Dan‘s mom was like a sister to me. We spent so much time together. We were close. Dan has always been very special to me. I will miss him so much. I will miss our long talks about everything. He was such a good guy. I cannot believe I will never be able to speak to him again. My heart breaks for Christianna and his children . He adored his family and sacrificed so much to always be there for them and make sure everything was special. Every holiday every birthday and special occasion, always done to the max. He was so talented. He didn’t know how good he was. He was so humble.  So young. It’s going to be hard to get over this. I am here for you guys. If you ever need anything. I love you.

My condolences to Dan's family.  I first  met him at his house. He was friends with Chris. He had a New Year’s party at his house on December 31, 2020-for  the 2021 New year.  There were so many wonderful people I met there.  He and Christina made me feel very welcomed and warm in their home. Their daughters are amazing. He would come by our store and hang out with us from time to time. We will continue to pray for his wife and family.  Chris and I will miss you very much Dan. May you rest high on that mountain my friend. Your work is done. 

Dan and I were neighbors since we were 3 years old. Dan, my brother Pat and myself used to play army, dritclod fights. We'd play mud football in the potato field across the street on Muller rd. We would ride our bikes down to the canal and railroad tracks. We'd spend the night at eachothers houses sometimes outside in the summer time. Dan was like my 4th brother. 

When I moved to East Texas in 2020, Dan and I became closer. We'd talk on the phone for hours about our childhood. We'd talk about his mom Sandy and her love for the holidays , especially Christmas, family,  our children.  He adored his babies, life and everything else under the sun. 

I'd invite myself 🤣 out to their house in Quitman, Dan and I would go shooting . Obviously he was a much better marksman than me but it was a great time.

I talked to Dan more than I did with my own brothers. 

I'm going to miss you my brother. 

You'll always be my brother I love you Dan.
