I am deeply saddened by the loss of Dan. He was not only a great boss, but a true friend—someone who cared deeply for his family and friends and made everyone around him better. I’m grateful for the time I had working with him and for all that he taught me along the way. I’ll always remember his kindness, his humor, and of course, his love for Turtle Blizzards from Dairy Queen. He will be greatly missed, but never forgotten.

Dan made people smile! He worked with my husband, Lane, for many years so I was lucky enough to get to know his family. I am sure he will be missed by many, but memories last forever!

I'm so sorry I can't be with you all for the funeral. I wish so much that I could. I have only the best memories of Uncle Dan, and I still have the toy chest he made me when I was small. It holds all my favorite blankets and trinkets now. What I wouldn't give to hear his snicker one last time. I've been gone too long, and I'm sorry. I love you all and I will be there with you in spirit. Sing your hearts out.

I retired after 48 years in the wholesale liquor business and had many bosses in my time but I must say Dan was the best boss I ever worked for and with, this is a true loss not only to has family but to the business family that he leaves behind I will truly miss him and the relationship developed outside the business he and I enjoyed the Far Side cartoons by Gary Larson and it always bought a smile to our faces. My prayers are to his family and friends alike I am honored to have know him as the best example of courage just being a great example to others. P.S. he made me more money in bonuses with his detail to business. Thanks BOSS you will be missed Rich Culp
