This was one of the most amazing men i have ever met. Even though it was a only a short period of time, This man has impacted a lot of lives. My little girl Skyler Grace Robinson was one of his great- grandchildren, and she loved him with all her heart. Even though Skyler does not know what has happened, i know he is watching over her, and she still prays for him every night. Skyler’s Father is Joshua David Carter, and is one of PAPA DAN’S grandchildren. I pray for this family every day, and PAPA dan please keep a watch over all of this family, Spread your wings and fly sweet man !!!!!
Uncle Dan was a great man with a BIG heart for his family and friends! He was like a big teddy bear..he may have looked big (and scary when he was mad..lol), but he was sweet and gentle on the inside with a heart of gold! I am so glad that he was a part of my life and I’m really glad I was able to see him in June when I came to GA. I always loved talking to him and listening to his stories he told. He genuinely cared for people and loved to make people laugh. He will always be one of my favorite uncles and he will be missed so much! You may be gone, but will never be forgotten! I love you Uncle Dan!! RIP
I miss you so much! Not a day goes by that I don’t have you on my mind. I wear your thumb print around my neck everyday. I love and miss you so much.
