It is with heavy hearts and profound sadness that we announce the passing of Daniel Eugene Portwood in his Boca Raton home on July 28. Born in Jefferson County, Alabama, Daniel was a beloved son, brother, uncle and friend. His kindness had no boundaries and all who knew him in his 46 years were better for it. He was an accomplished professional, acting as Senior Product Manager for a major consumer products company with global operations. His contributions to his company are incalculable. His warm smile, compassionate demeanor and endearing personality made him loved and admired both at work and socially. Many at work new him as 'Sugar Bear' because his charm and kindness could turn any negative situation positive. Daniel always knew what was important in life-spending time with those he loved and cheering the Crimson Tide and his favorite NASCAR drivers. He will be missed by all that knew him. We know that he has found peace and will be cheering from the heavens this Fall- Roll Tide!
