I am very sorry for the loss of Dan.
He made a great impression on my life
as I am sure he did many, many others.
Be proud he was a part of your family.
We will miss him always.

Here is the eulogy I wrote for my Dad.
Daddy,
I don't know what to tell you now, my words fall on saddened ears.
The time I got to spend with you flew by like a few short years.
I know that things weren't always great or even fair at best.
But you should see the faces here as we ease your soul to rest.
A beautiful person, a gifted mind and passionate spirit, too.
These are some of the many parts that were uniquely you.
Your laughter was contagious, like music for so long.
I'm going to miss your part in the life that was our song.
I'll see you every day, in myself and hear you in my name.
The memories I have are strong, but without you it's not the same.
So much to say, so little time for we can't be sad too long.
Funny how until just now I didn't know I'd write your song.
This won't be a sad song, even though we miss you so badly.
Every day, for me, will be another note in this song that's for my Daddy.
I know we'll all see you again, when the spotlight fades away.
But until then family and friends here is where we must stay.
He's looking down on each of us high, high up above.
He wants us all to know and feel his peace, his happiness and love.
Know that when we find our place in the ever-after,
We will join songs with him and share in his laughter.
So, even though we are sad today and our hearts have yet to mend--
Know that there will be a day when we will all ROCK again.

Dan,
It's hard to believe that 18 years has slipped away
since we last spoke. I think of you often and regret
that I didnt look you up all of those times that I
thougth about you. My heart hurt when I learned of your passing.
I am deeply saddened for the Klauenburch family.
We lost a great man. You made the world a better place
and you will be missed dearly by me as well as anyone that knew you.

We our very sorry to hear of dannys passing. Our prayers go out to his family at this very sad time. I remember working and hanging out with danny at Connies Fine Foods back in the day. I grew up knowing kenny and donna at the corner store. So many good memories of all of you. Danny had the greatest sense of humor and a contagious smile. Just cant say how sorry we are for you all. RIP "Dan the Man" . JoJo Gillespie and Evy Rogers

You told me what a good friend I was and how much you appreciated me just days before you left. But you were the one who was a good friend and I will always remember your kind and caring heart. I will miss our long chats about anything and everything and what a truely good person you are. I'm sorry I wasn't there to say good-bye, but you will always leave a warm place in my heart and I will forever miss my friend.

Dan will be missed so very much by me! Watching him play his guitars, listening to his vast music library, watching movies that would make us laugh or cry, talking about the roller coaster ride called life. Now the sudden loss of such a beautiful, loving and caring man is very hard to bear. He made such a difference to me (and many others too I'm sure) that I will forever be thankful for all the memories I have.
My deepest heartfelt sympathies go out to his family for the emptiness they will surely feel. I'm thinking of you at this difficult time. Forever in my heart he will be. As the lyric says in an Alter Bridge song we listened to often, Dan has Shed his Skin and is watching over us with his beloved mother. I'm hoping that he will be there when I "Shed My Skin" and we'll rock and roll together again. Miss you so much already! I will forever cherish my memories of you until the day we do meet again.
A friend

You've gone on before us to prepare a special place
one by one we will join you with the help of God's grace
But until that final day, you'll be our Family's guiding light
our chosen Guardian Angel, a shining star that's burning bright
You'll be our strength and our courage when life seems so bleak
the strong arm that we lean on when our souls become weak
and these blessings that you'll share with us will be like no other
sent down from heaven by you, my sweet-precious cousin and to some
even call you brother.
In Memory of my cousin (I Love & Miss You Danny)
