I attended church with Dan and his wife Linda at the Carrollwood congregation for several years. While I was teaching the Senior High School Bible class, Daniel asked if I would mind if he set in. As I taught the class heroes his hand to ask a question and challenge me to be sure I was well founded in the scripture on what I was teaching. I guess when I had answered his questions sufficiently, according to Scripture, he simply smiled and said okay. I still laugh about that to this day. I love him and will miss him. Praise God he is at rest

Attended church with Dan, Linda and Steve for many years. It was common for Dan to teach a bible class and always make you think about every aspect of the subject. He didn't give out the answers. He had an interminable wit and sense of humor and it was still evident as I recently saw he and Linda out shopping. Condolences from our family to yours.

Dan was a very fine lawyer. My first experience with him was when I was in my second year of practice. I was asked to work with this much older and experienced lawyer on the preparation of the by laws for the HCBA Trial Lawyers Section. Although I was just a baby lawyer then, he treated me with as an equal. In my dealings with him over the years, he was always pleasant, professional and a man of integrity. He will be missed by his fellow trial lawyers.

Dan was my first mentor when I became a Florida lawyer 25 years ago. To this day, I owe much of the way I practice law to Dan. - Don Mihokovich
