Dan and I were lifelong friends, going to church together at the Central Church of Christ
in Downtown Jackson. Dan, Ray Tomlinson, and I were very close growing up spending just about every Sunday afternoon after church at one of our three houses. One Sunday, Dan and I decided to be baptized that night. Our minister at Central was Bonds Stocks and he baptized us that night.
Dan I grew apart when I came to Searcy, Arkansas for the rest of my highschool years at
Harding Academy. I attended Harding College (University) and graduated in 1961.
After a quite a few years teaching/Coaching we returned to Searcy, My wife (Dolores)
and I became dorm managers of a Freshman class dormitory. Dan/Connie's boys lived in the dorm with us and we got to see them briefly from time to time.
We are so sorry for Dan's passing away and want to wish condolences to Connie and the family. God bless! Love God!
