Dan and Sharon were married for 58 years. During those years they loved playing golf together and with family and friends. He enjoyed his grade school (Our Lady Lourdes) and high school (St. Louis University High) class reunions all the way up until his death. As an avid historian, he created a family photo album every year. He was a member of the Teamster local 682 retiring from driving a redi-mix truck. He amassed a collection of over 300 toy mixers. He also collected coins, hats, matchbooks, music and flags. He was very proud of the WWII aircraft models that he assembled in his free time. He and Sharon enjoyed camping so much that he helped organize a Family Camp Out that has continued for over 40 years and 4 generations! Dan loved his family. He loved family gatherings during the holidays and spending time with friends. He was a proud Navy veteran.
