I can't believe my best friend is gone I always looked forward
to getting my hair cut please take care of his babies
My sincere condolences to all Dan's family. I was so sorry to hear of Dan's passing. He was my hair dresser for several years and I was his tax preparer. He was such a special person. He was so smart and funny. I always left his shop feeling much better than when I had arrived. I will miss our talks so very much.
Mom and I are so sorry to learn of Dan's passing. We love him
so much! He made us beautiful (his words!), and he always
made us laugh. Mom always brought him fudge when we got
our hair cut, and he ate half of it before he would even start
working on us. We will miss him until we see him again in
Heaven! Novice and Mary Snyder

Dan was an amazing person, and always knew just what to say. He will be so missed, not only by the humans whose lives he touched, but also my Milton and Pearl. Jeff, I pray that God gives you peace, and holds you in His arms during this time. Gain peace as well through caring for those beloved fur-babies Dad loved so much. Our deepest wishes are for comfort for all of you.
There will never be another Dan. I pray you can find comfort in the many good memories.
My heart is truly broken Jeff I don't know you but I'm so
thankful he had you by his side till the end his last words to me
about two weeks ago was "Sabrina don't miss me to bad" with
tears in my eyes I said "I already do" that's the honest truth

Dan was such an amazing man. I have been seeing him for my hair for almost 20 years. He had a knack to make you feel so comfortable. He made me laugh so many times. He always knew how to cut my hair and just the right color. I called him a wizard with color. I am going to miss him a lot. Please know you are all in my prayers.

My mother (Hannelore) is computer illiterate and called me in Texas to ask me to see if I could find anything about her hairdresser of 25+ years, Dan because she could not get ahold of him. When I told her I found the article of his passing she was extremely heartbroken to hear of this news. She talked a lot of how Dan always made her laugh and the 3 loves of his life (those boxers). I've heard so much about him over the years, I feel like I know him. Condolences and prayers for the family ~ we are truly sorry for your loss.
Jeff,so sorry for your loss. You are in my prayers
and thoughts.
I cannot believe that my awesome friend is gone. I will miss him more than words say. He will be missed by all friends and family, the world is at a loss without him in it.
I am shocked and devastated to hear of Dan's passing. He has
done my hair for 20 years, from my wedding day, to both of my
daughters 1st haircuts, and my last appointment a week before
Christmas. Dan ALWAYS made me laugh! He was such a
GREAT person and definitely one of a kind! He will be missed
so much! Many prayers for Dan's family.

You will be missed terribly , loved more than you could ever
have imagined. We have lost our friend but God has a new
and wonderful angel by his side.. Jeff I love you so very much
and how wonderful it must be to have known Dan for so long.
Jeff you are loved by us and surrounded by so much love .
I hope you can find comfort , we can never understand why
someone we love so is taken from us and such an empty
feeling is left. But never forget Dan is all around you !
I can still see his beautiful smile blowing me a kiss last time I
saw him . I'm here for you always. !

Our condolences to Jeff & Dan's family.
Being a friends & clients, Dan, Larry & I would discuss many different ideas about politics, church & silly things that have happened to us. We had a lot of good laughs & shed some tears.
We will miss Dan terribly. We always enjoyed our visits with him.
Remember the memories & keep them in your hearts!
To the family & friends & the many loyal
clients of Dan's I send my condolences. He was
a wonderful person with such a good heart & a
great listener. He did my hair for quite a
while & knew as much about me as some of my
closest friends at one time. Sadly when I moved
to TX for a while & came back, I did my own
hair for a long time but, when the time came
that I needed him, soon after losing my husband
he got me in immediately & did an amazing job &
listened to me pour my heart out. Since I had
been away for so long, I had no idea he was
sick & he never mentioned it, with me being so
upset. I only got to see him that one last time
in September of last year. I called to make
another appt only to find out the sad news,
that he was very sick & in the hospital. I kept
him & the family in my prayers & will continue
to do so. He will for sure be missed by many &
I will forever be grateful for his sweet
demeanor & his listening ear. God bless you all
& may you find peace.
