To the Walsh Family,

Although I have not seen Dan in years, my day is brightened each time I think of him. We were classmates at Niagara from freshmen year through noviciate at New Baltimore. Dan had an outstanding sense of humor, "earthy" at times, but never unkind.

I know you will miss him very much. But I pray that the peace of the Risen Christ will comfort your hearts as I remember him in my Masses.

Dan leaves a legacy of goodness and service to this world, so beautifully exemplified by his children. He carries the gratitude of countless friends and colleagues. May the Lord of all kindness grace Dan's family and friends with consolation.

Dan was a great classmate through law school, and a wonderful friend in life. We shared many memorable times with Dan and Rita as we all started out. Dan was both gentle and strong, and I feel blessed to have had as a friend.
