Dan had an incredible love for fishing. With his rod in one hand and his loyal dog by his side, Snickers wasn’t just a pet, but a constant companion—always ready for the next adventure, never far from his side. He also loved to always help others, enjoyed carpentry, gardening, and caring for his fish, all of which brought him peace and joy in everyday life.
