     Dan's no-nonsense charm was the reason I went to work every day. He trained me in one of my first social service positions in 1999, and we continued that relationship for 8 years. His tales of perseverance  from darker days in his own life created perspective, and guided his co-workers to overcome as did he. I have thought about him often as my career moved on... Even going out of my way to visit. I like to believe a spirit as tough as his remains near to oversee all of our endevors; both worthy and foolish.

I knew Dan from working with him at JVS.  He was always funny and had a different perspective on life than I had ever experienced.  He was always so good at being physically fit. 

It makes me sad that he died so young. I remember how proud he was of his kids!

Hard not to think about him and hope that John and Christine are doing ok!

I am so sorry to hear about your loss. Dan was a truly kind person and endlessly entertaining. He left us a lifetime of Dan stories that will be with us forever. My deepest sympathy to his family.

Dan was the first person I met on my new job back in 1982. I am so saddened to learn of his passing. He was always a friend and had a wonderful sense of humor. My thoughts and prayers to his family.

This news breaks my heart, and my condolences are with his family. Although I had not talked with Dan in years, he will always hold a very special place in my heart. I worked with Dan as a vocational evaluator at JVS. It was my very first job after college and Dan was an amazing teacher, co-worker, and friend. My thoughts and prayers are with his children and I pray he is at peace.

My heart is very sad....Danny, Bob, Betty and his wonderful parents were a special part of my life in high school!  That was a long time ago, but special people remain with us forever!  My condolences to all the DeHaemers family.
