to my house with the craziest mask to scare my kis and they loved it. RIP my friend.

I supervised Dan at Beaverdale Station for about a year. Dan and I became friends and I liked his sense of humor. I know he will most certainly be missed by his children and grandchildren and I I know many friends that will miss him as well. So fly high my friend and Rest In Peace. God bless those closest that will have a huge void in their lives. Remember the great memories made with Dan.

My condolences to the Stanley family. I met Dan many years ago, when he was just out of the service. We were friends who drifted apart. I always thought of him, when driving past his house on Indianola Rd. His strong spirit will live on in all of you.
