I’ll never forget the Christmas of Santa Dan, it wasn’t one of the best years I remember that. We went to the Chambers Christmas party and were coming home, we met uncle Dan on the Range road and I remember dad saying oops we missed Danny. We got home and pulling into the driveway of the old green house. We got inside and there was a big box of toys for all of us. Laser guns were the ones I remember the most, I remember dad saying Santa Dan must have been here, he would never ever admit it was him but he didn’t just do it for us he did it for a bunch of kids in our circle. That left an impression on me my whole life. I have countless memories like that with you uncle Dan. Sleepovers for the whole week of vacation with Dj and Wayne spaghetti and corn chowder dinners with the old ones. Your house always felt like home, you made sure of that. I’ll sure miss you uncle Dan I Love You and I’m glad you and dad are together again.

My Uncle Dan. There are very few memories of my childhood that don't include you. Family get togethers, weddings, BBQs, camping trips, birthday parties, and basically every weekend you were there. You were mom and dad's best friend and a major influence in the lives of all of us kids. We didn't see you much after we all grew up but every time we did, it felt like we were 10 again. You'd tease me and pull my hair just like you did when I was a kid. I ambso grateful for all that you taught us. We'll miss you here but I know you're somewhere with Dad watching over us all. Love you Uncle Dan-o

I remember the time dad helped me with making a fishing lure and I remember the time dad taught me to drive the truck, I also remember the time dad went to all of my horse shows to support me and Cheer me on and I remember the time dad brought me fishing and taught me how to and me out fishing him

I don't know what to say, I moved into the neighborhood when I was in 5th grade and became part of the neighborhood kids! Dan and I were the same age along with some other kids in the neighborhood and the whole pack of us became fast friends spending our free time playing and exploring the surrounding areas. We eventually grew up and went our separate ways , I ended up staying in the neighborhood building a house and raising a family. Soon enough Dan was back doing the same things with his family. But then Deanna came into both of our lives, a blessing for all. Dan and Deanna were two peas in a pod , the best neighbors you could have! I was so sad when they moved to their little farm but knew that they were happy. I will miss Dan, his soft spoken words and gentle ways. My heart goes out to Deanna, Rachel, Jacob, Laci and DJ, I know you all lost a big part of your hearts when Dan passed. Know I am thinking of you all! Mona

Where to start. Daddy was my hero and always will be. My brother said it, our Dad was the best! He didn't have to be, but right from day one he decided to be and from there on in he was all in, he was Dad! He had us kids any chance he could. Made it a priority to have us on or around each and every holiday and on our birthdays. As a kid we were surrounded by family, he always made sure we knew what family was and how to value those relationships. If I had an injury no matter how small or big or if I didn't feel good he was right there taking great care of me. Becoming a teenager was quite the experience he always made sure I had what I needed and helped me through it. I remember doing a school projects on different places after hearing Dad talk about some of his Reserves trips. He'd always save some of his MRE's to bring home to Bub and I, man did we love those. My brother would often come to me and say "hey sis, can you ask dad for ..." Without fail Dad would always find a way to get it, whether it was a new bike, the newest and greatest toy or gas money, both of us had it. If I ever needed anything night or day Dad always told me he'd be there. Becoming a young adult, losing our Mom, starting a career and then a family, I wasn't around as much as I'd wished I'd been. But Dad made sure to be there when I gave birth to one of his grandsons, he never missed any of his birthdays and most recently taught him how to drive a standard. Dad would go fishing with us, and have cookouts with us. One thing with dad was we didnt even need to talk to enjoy each others company. Through thick and thin Dad was always my hero. RIP Daddy!!

Sometimes miracles are in the form of a person. Dan represented just that for my mother and me. After the death of my “real” father, when I was 8 years old, my mother and I were in a dark place. I didn’t think that I would ever see my mother happy again. We had many years of unhappiness and difficult times together. For a long time, we only had each other. That all changed the day that my mom met Dan. My mom found her spark again. I had never seen her so happy. I like to think that they were destined to be together, to relieve grief, and to know the feeling of love again.
I will forever be thankful for Dan coming into our life. Dan gave my mother a second chance at spending her life with a loving partner. Dan gave me a second chance to have a father. Dan gave my son a chance to have a grandfather. Dan gave my adopted brother and sister an opportunity to know a father’s love from the very day they were born and brought home from the hospital.
Dan never treated me like a stepchild or my son like a step-grandson. He treated us like his own - like we had always belonged together as one large family. Dan was always a phone call away if I ever needed anything. And I mean anything… even ridiculous things. Like the time I tried to install an outside light by myself, and sparks threatened to burn my house down. Dan was at my house in minutes. No questions asked. Or the time I called in hysterics because my house was flooding with water from a hot water heater. Again, no questions asked, and he was at my side within minutes.
I would like to think that Dan particularly enjoyed helping me by listening to my MANY MANY complaints about my relationship issues. Dan would always listen with patience and supply laughter when needed. I also know that if I ever followed through with my venting threats of violence (throat punches were my normal go to,) he would have been right there to bail me out of jail. Luckily, I always felt better after talking to my mom and Dan, so I never had to test that belief. Dan was an easy person to talk to and would always help those around him to feel better.
So, by chance or by miracle, Dan changed my family for the better. Twenty-three years together was not long enough. He will always hold a special place in my heart and will forever be missed.

My dad was the absolute best. He was that dad that bought you your first car. Actually, he bought me and my sister our first two cars. And half of my cousin Chris's first car too. He was the man.
My childhood was the best. My parents were divorced when I was 3 I think, but fortunately that had zero impact on my quality of life because my dad sacrificed his whole early adult life to be everything for me and my sister.
All he did was give me amazing memories. Not memories of expensive family trips or anything like that, but memories of just good old fashion spending time with family.
When I was at my dad's I was also with my grandparents, and my uncle Kevin, and my Uncle Wayne. Long story, but they all lived with my dad. So I had a ton of childhood memories with them too. And because my grandparents were there my aunts and uncle's that lived close by would always visit, so I was always with them and my cousins too. I had the best relationships with all of them growing up.
And then we also spent a ton of time at my Aunt Patty and Uncle Rick's. Just about every weekend I was at my dad's, and all summer, we would go to visit. And just another flood of amazing memories. Again, no expensive trips or anything crazy, just good old fashioned family memories. Camping, hunting, snowmobiling, playing baseball and football watching racing, eating Aunt Patty's cooking, grilling, going to the beach, on and on and on.
My cousins Adam, Amanda, Chris, and Greg were so close with my sister and I because of this type of family atmosphere our parents gave us. It's a lost art.
I'm so happy that the last few years I've been able to give my kids the same sort of memories with lots of time spent in the summer with my cousins. My kids are literally living the same great childhood my dad gave me with so much time spent with aunts, uncles, and their cousins.
But then when I graduated high school, he finally did something for himself. He met Deanna and they went full speed ahead into raising two more children together. And once again, my dad devoted his life to give two more kids the best life he could. The circumstances were very different as it was just a whole new dynamic, but the man leading the way was the same committed father. I was around quite a bit in the beginning, and it was really fun to have a baby brother and sister.
But then I kind of moved out of the picture a bit and started my own family, and my dad raised his second family with Deanna.
Then my sister and I, and Deanna's daughter Rachel, gave him four grandsons. That were also an absolute joy for him.
Long story, but basically my dad was THE BEST!
