Dan was a wonderful friend and colleague to many within the Naval Engineering Branch. The Navy greatly benefited from his leadership, and those who worked with him closely enjoyed the professionalism, technical expertise and sense of humour that he always brought to our lives. Dan is in our thoughts and will always be remembered.

My deepest condolences to Dan's wife and family. He was a good man to work with; someone you could talk things through with and count on to handle his responsibilities well. May the sun shine warm upon your face, Dan, and may God hold you in the palm of His hand ~

To the Kim Family,
I just wanted to extend my deepest condolences and add to the chorus of voices stating how wonderful Dan was. I truly enjoyed my time working along side Dan at DND with the DIMEI 6 team. I will very much miss our Motorcycle chats and discussions about how best to ride in the cold. Rest In Peace my friend!! My heart and thoughts are with Dan's wife and family.
