Dan, the passing of a good friend is always a difficult experience. I too have known this loss. I've found that the best way to honor his memory will be for you to share his message with the people closest to you. Especially future generations. Be Well !!!

So sorry to hear of the loss of your friend, Dan.
Seems to me he taught you well as I have never seen you without a smile on your face.
Shall we tip a glass in his honor at our GTG dinner tomorrow night?

That sucks, man. I'm sorry to hear that. It sounds like he's left some great memories behind with the people he knew.

Dan,
There are never any good words when something like this happens. I hope that you and all of your friend's loved ones can find some peace and solace. You've obviously got a lot of folks here thinking of you, myself included.
