So sorry for your loss. I only knew Dan from the CCRHL a fierce competitor that always pushed his team to do their very best. A true leader. You will be missed
We were so shocked & saddened to learn of the sudden death of Dan. Our hearts go out to all of Dan’s family as you go through this very difficult time.
To you, Allisen & Tristan, we have such wonderful memories of the time shared in Punta Cana, the 3 of you standing in at Ryan & Deana’s wedding.
To you Dan, a life taken far too soon. You worked hard & you played hard here on earth and we know, if heaven has a skating rink, you’ll be playing hockey there. Keep your head up, your stick on the ice and keep those refs on their toes up there just as you did down here. Rest in Peace Dan.
