Dan was a devoted husband, and cherished father to his children Ginger, Adam and Franklin Parks. He was a master carpenter, and builder. He found joy as a member of the Delaware National Sporting Clays Association and won many awards in competition at the highest level. He was a skilled sharp shooter and gun enthusiast. No one was more fun than Dan, always happy and loved making you laugh he was a true optimist.
He is resting at peace now from a long affliction from a form of Parkinson that crippled his body. He is truly missed and will never be forgotten for the love and joy he gave his family.

Remembering Dan very well since Sligo Junior High. We dated for a while in 9th grade and we're on the school newspaper and took a railroad trip to Philadelphia for the paper. We had some good times and always stayed friends. In fact, made the best leather shoulder handbag with beautiful carved flowers for me that lasted forever and I mean forever! We later ran into Heather after highschool, I believe in or around 1978 or a bit later. We were both at a party at my brother-in-law's, turns out they worked together at times. He was a contractor and my brother-in-law was a plumber, they were both really good in there professions. So I saw Dan quite a bit back then. Great memories and fun! May Dan rest in peace now and many blessings for him.James Foster
