Dan was a shining light in this world. He was a wonderful father, and husband. As I always saw him and his large family come in church, it brought a smile to my face that there was such kindness left in this world. He was patient and kind, you could see it as he spoke to his children as they flocked around him.
I also knew Dan as a teacher for the youth of St. Mary's in Coxsackie. He always brought a wonderful message to the children. I am deeply saddened to hear of his passing. I know he will enter into the kingdom of God with our eternal father and Lord Jesus Christ.
John 14:1-3 “Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me. In my Father’s house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also.
He will remain forever in my heart, his smile, his soft spoken words, his laugh and his love for his children and wife. May God wrap his arms around all of you and please know that your in my thoughts and prayers.
