Joe "Sonny" I am so very sorry to hear about the loss of your brother Dan.
I worked with Danny at the Medusa Cement Company in the summers of 1976
-1978. He was a great co-worker and always so easy to talk to and to just
be around. We had some great summers on the 'old labor gang' under the
tutelage of Archie Ciro. Working in the kilns re-bricking them, or
shoveling warm cement powder under the mills and silos. Danny always seemed
to get covered in cement dust so easily. I will never forget his smile!

May God keep you and your family in His hands during this time of loss. My
wife Bianca and I will keep your family and Danny in our prayers. God Bless
you all.

I graduated from Mohawk with Dan. We sat next to each other in many classes
and I enjoyed his company and sense of humor so very much. Over the years I
have asked about him and even just recently told a friend that Dan was the
one person that I most wanted to talk with again and see how he was doing.
I was so very sad to hear about his death before I was ever able to
reconnect and say hello. I will keep your family in my prayers and I will
continue to cherish my memories of him. Rossanne Williams Meyer
