I have know Dan since we were kids. He was the kindest, sweetest man I have ever known. He would do anything for anybody at anytime. I cherished our friendship. The things we did together as kids and the serious conversations we had as friends and comrades as adults will be forever locked away. I am just heart broken.
He was always a gentlemen and a non judgmental friend regardless. I know that we will meet again. I look forward our reunion. I will miss you Dan until then, keep the light on for me.

For 18 years I worked for Dan and he treated me like his son. Dan guided me and mentored me to be the person I am today. His level of patience and caring was indescribable. And I know that I tested his patience on a daily basis. I could go on for days but what is important is that Dans only wish in life was to see his children grow up to be succeful and secure. And his wish came true. I never met a man that overcame obstacles and setbacks in life like Dan has done with the upmost positive attitude and optimism. I'm going to miss Dan everyday of my life and I will never forget the opportunities he gave me. I'm relived that he has gone to a better place where he is healthy and strong. I will continue on and try to measure up to him and continue on the business that loved so dearly. I was proud and cherished the fact that he considered me one of his sons.

My family knew the Backus family for years thru church and school. My dad and Dan worked together for a few years before my dad's retirement. I remember what a sweet boy and fun to be around kid that he was. His sister Karen and I went all through school together. I was looking forward to seeing him again at SWC school reunion in July.

Uncle Dan will always be in our hearts. He was always the uncle at family gatherings that was hugging, kissing and telling everyone how he loved them. He just loved to see family together and appreciated every moment he had with us.
You will be missed and your memories will carry on!
