Dan was an independent, creative thinker who relished tackling the seemingly impossible-he could figure out how to do anything. He was a believer, a dreamer, and a doer. Dan read widely and he loved the outdoors; he loved dry-fly fishing, backpacking, river rafting, riding horses, and spending time at the family cabin in Weber Canyon. Above all, Dan loved being a father to his six remarkable children. Every decision he made in life was for their benefit. He was and forever will be their hero. We will miss Dan's deep and rich baritone voice and hearty laugh that made us all so happy to be around him. He was as Christ-like as any person we ever knew- a wonderful man full of integrity, life and light. Dan was a passionately loyal and loving husband; a gentleman in every sense of the word; a man for all seasons; a man of God.
