    All the family back in Wisconsin was very upset to hear about the loss of Daniel. Personally, I will remember the time we went ice fishing about 5 years ago on Lake Noquebay in Crivitz, WI during a visit home. We did catch some fish and had a good time. I can remember him as a toddler running around in his diaper and it doesnt seem that long ago. Our condolences go out to John, Nancy, & family. Michael & Kendra Droese

    John and Nancy - so sorry when I heard about Daniel. Our families have always been close and your son Daniel was the one Vicki and I had the most contact with. I remember when he built the back yard fence my way - it was harder than he had planned, but the wagon wheels in the fence made a special memory for us. I often thought of Daniel when I looked at that fence. I will miss him. Bless you and John and your family. Bobbo

    Dan was such a great friend...although I haven't had much contact the past 10yrs just a month ago I was telling my wife a story about Dan and me needing to give him a call. I really regret not making that call. I love buddy and I know we will meet again one day. I couldn't have asked for a better more loving and loyal friend. You are truly missed....my heart is broken. Till we meet again my friend Ryan Prejean
