Like so many on this board, when I first posted a message here, Dan was the first person to respond. His upbeat attitude, compassionate words and sage advice have been a comfort to so many of us here.

His courageous battle against this disease never diminished his zest for life or altered his mischievous sense of humor. He's a wonderful man and will be sorely missed. God bless him.

If "the love you take is equal to the love you make", Danny Boy is taking home a boatload of love. May he rest in peace.
