After that, any time I saw him post, I read it. I am saddened to never read him post again He had some pretty sad stuff happen in the last few years. Rest well, my arf-brother, although he was much more fatherly than anything. His birthday is exactly 60 years before my oldest child.

Mary, most of us only knew Dana through this forum, or at all. He was always a positive reflection of life in just about every conversation he participated in on here. Y'all have a large family, but you'll find that if you need anything, there'll likely be someone here that would be more than willing to offer assistance without reservation, payment, or conditions.

Prayers for you and your Hillen Family.
