Please be patient while the pictures download. It might take quite a while.

While you wait, you may wish to read some of the stories about Dan, here.

Our hope is that this page will grow over time as more photos are added
and better captions are written.What can you do to help? Well, we
need LOTS of help here. First, we need more pictures. Second,
we need captions that describe what was going on;
what he was doing, what he was thinking.

Please Help.

These images and their captions were compiled
by Shannon Gill and Sean Cohen. Many thanks
to all of those people who helped us.
