Dan,

It's been 28 years since you went home to Heaven. Thinking of you again, and missing you. I listened to Dan Fogelberg and Olivia Newton-John songs again in your honor. I miss you greatly, think of you often, talk to you occasionally, and will see you again sooner than later.

Please give my son Mattie a hug, and help him when he needs it.

You are such a good soul. Love you & miss you. Thoughts and prayers for your Mom and sister Darah.

God Bless,
Greg
