    My deepest sympathy to the family of Dan. If you have ever visited the Kakascik home, no matter what mood you were in, you left with a smile on your face. Dan always made sure of that with his humor. Great man.

    My genuine sympathies to your family for the passing of Dan. We will always miss him. He was the funniest man I knew and is probably joking about this somehow.
