Danny was a victim of agent orange in Viet Nam. He suffered his entire life because of it. His was the ultimate sacrifice. I am forever grateful for ALL veterans of any war that sacrifice for my benefit. Thank you, Danny.

From Lyman Belnap:
I am so sorry to hear of Dan's passing. We were best of friends for 18 years and shared birth months. He was 4 days older. I loved staying over at his place where he was always entertaining and shared their pet bobcat. He taught me a chiropractic maneuver that I have used my entire adult life. My love goes out to Nancy and his family.

I am going to miss Danny. He was one person I remembered well from school. We got in trouble in geometry class one time and Danny tried to stand up for me. He was fun loving and kind. We were all better for knowing him. I wish his family well.
