A true rock and roller, he began drumming professionally at the age of 14 in various wedding bands. In 1969 he was a founding member of “Sando’z,” a rock band that played at venues throughout Illinois, such as Rush Up, Mother’s and Haymakers.

He was a skilled drummer and a gifted gardener who shared his talents with his church and communities. Dan initiated a garden apostolate where he created local gardens to grow fresh produce during the summer months in his community. He was a gentle man who lived simply and gave of what he had to his family and community with great generosity.
