OK. People have chimed in. Those that knew him personally and those that
knew him via the GMCnet.

As far as I'm concerned, Dan was the driver. Teri was the navigator,
cook, event planner, mechanic, etc. It reminds me of the football team.
Teri was the team and Dan was the cheerleaders. Cheerleaders don't win
games.

Though Teri is strong and focused, she felt free to do so because Dan
was solidly behind her. Now that he's no longer her in the flesh, that
will change her situation. Though she's had a lot of attention in the
past week, it's the weeks ahead that will tell the difference in who her
real friends are and what her support network is composed of. It's at
those times, when everyone else seems to have gotten back to their
routines, that Teri will miss Dan the most and need us.

I'm very please and not at all surprised that Ken Burton made the trip.
It was important that he be there. I go to funerals because it's the
least I can do to show my respect and admiration. Had we not been in
Kissimmee, FL I would have made the trip from Louisville, KY. I'm also
please that Luther McConnell was also present.

Dan fought well. However, there are some things in life we'll not all
physically overcome. Being a winner involves so much more than living a
number of years. Dan made a tremendous impact and lived fervently by his
faith. He was a real winner.
