I was asked to remove this temporarily until there was permission from Dans family. We have their permission now.

RIP Dan. Only minor dealings here on the board, but seemed like a great guy.

Life is a bitch sometimes, especially with the good guys. You'll be missed here and in many other places Dan. The tracks up there are said to be beyond human imagination and I'm sure you'll make the A-main all the time. RIP
