Who in the area could possibly forget the green Honda motorcycle he bought and rode around. Instant cool. What a great neighbor.

Dear Sheila and Family,

When I heard about your loss, I was very surprised because Dan was full of Life, youth and hipness especially at Maxine's Batmitzvah dancing with the kids and telling the " buddy story" with his friend. My heart goes out to you all for the loss of your best friend, husband, awesome father, and amazing Papa.

Sincerely,
Brandon Becker and family.
