McGuire family, I'm sorry I missed Dan's service. I think of him often when I think of my early days in Chinatown.We reffed b.ball games in the projects,laughed together and worked together. Where has the time gone? It was a great time, thanks Dan for your part! Jim

Dear Aunt Sally, Nancy & Janet,

Sorry to hear about Uncle Dan's passing. I wish I would have known sooner. I would have attended the service. My father, Rais, and him had a special bond. Unfortunately, me, my sister, Tricia, my brother John, and his brother Joe found out too late. I express my deepsest sympathy to your family.



Love, Barb Radusewicz (Rais' middle child)

Dear Aunt Sally, Janet, and Nancy:

Please accept my deepest sympathy on the passing of Uncle Dan. For my brother and me, he and our Dad were our heroes --- men amongst men. My own son is named Dan, and I only hope he can live up to the expectations of that proud namesake.
