Daun and I were classmates from grade 1 through 12. I always liked him. What I remember mostly is that he was nice to be around and did not treat non-athletes any differently than he did his teammates. This world could use a few more DAUNS'. my condolences to his family.

Dear Renee, Adessa, and Arianna I am so sorry to hear of Daun's passing. He was truly a great person, and he will be missed by all who knew him. I can't express, in words, how much our times together fishing meant to me, and I was so fortunate to learn from the best. All of you meant the world to him. You have a guardian angel for a life. Thank you Daun...Sam
