Dan was a devoted husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather. He was an avid fisherman, enjoyed camping and just being outdoors. His other passion was spending time with family and friends. Dan never met a stranger and was always bumping into long lost classmates, friends or former co-workers. He enjoyed restoring old vehicles and was a superior welder.
A brief graveside service will be held at Gulf Prairie Cemetery in Jones Creek on Saturday, February 17, 2024 at 10:00am with David Jordan officiating.
The family respectfully requests that in lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to your favorite charity in his honor.

Danny I'm sorry for your loss, didn't know your dad. But knowing you and the person you are I'm sure he was just as great as a person. Prayers to your family. God bless.
