I will always remember the great times (and some not so great ones) we had at Columbus. Great memories! I am so happy we got reacquainted last year. Rest well my friend - until we meet again.

With a song in his heart and dancing feet, Dan was a Renaissance man and the best husband and friend to his Robin. He is gone too soon and will always be remembered.
