At the age of 24, Daniel married the love of his life, Barbara E.

Once honorably discharged from his service, he returned to his job at Procter & Gamble which he stayed at for 35 years. In addition, he worked at Century 21 as a realtor on weekends for many years. He retired at the age of 55 to spend time with his family and friends.

Daniel was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, brother, and Follower of Christ.  He was very involved at St. John the Evangelist Church; he enjoyed participating as an alter attendant and serving mass at any chance he could get.  He also enjoyed spending time with his family, especially attending his grandchildren’s sporting events.  He always had a witty sense of humor and loved joking around with everybody. He never met a stranger. He enjoyed drinking his Starbucks, fighting with squirrels and spending time with Betty Carnes. He will be missed by all.
