Please stop what you are doing and take a moment to Pray for our good friend Dan and his family.

Default Our thoughts are with his family

Hi,

I met Dan at OSH this past year. We all had a good time at the RV-10 campsite trading lies and drinking beers. I'll be toasting Dan tonight with my wife. I'm not the religious type, but I'll say a prayer for Dan and his family anyway.

Sorry to hear that----------------lets hope this doesnt ignite a firestorm of speculation, spinning around the word "Subaru".

Just not the time for that.

RIP, Dan.

Does anyone have a picture of Dan. I've been going through all of my Osh BBQ pictures and I could swear I had one of him, but I can't find it now.

There's a few photo's of him and some video too.

We're praying for Dan and Trish. Sad story.
