Sincerest sympathy, from the Kelly Family: John, Madelyn, Michael, and Pattie. Found the services today online, sorry not enough time to send flowers. But great loss is felt. Sending prayers, support, hope, and faith, to reach my Egger Family: As they were my other family in my life. Cannot express my grief adequate enough to alleviate their pain, but pray for their relief from pain, love, and happiness to come, in spite of insurmountable odds! My love and support. pattie kelly

My extend my thoughts and prayers to your whole family on the loss of Dan. I first met Dan when he began working for my husband Ken at his photo studio as his assistant after he graduated from City College. In early 1999 Ken passed away. Dan was a great help during Ken's illness and afterwards when I was faced with the task of closing his business. He and David Friend literally were my hands and feet throughout the entire task. Later he with Dave and Dianne Friend helped me get through my loss with our weekly studio get-togethers. I will always cherish the memories of the fun times the "Studio Gang" had together. Dan had a gentle and caring nature about him, and from then on always managed to keep in touch by calling on holidays. I will always be thankful that I had the chance to know him.
Sincerely, Karen Arnone
