When he met his future wife, Helen Therese Downs, he was a route manager with United Parcel Service in Philadelphia. After they married in 1963, he was appointed North East Logistics Manager for Standard Brands, a food company. Dan and Helen welcomed their children, Maureen, Daniel and Mary Helen into the world and a series of promotions moved the family from King of Prussia, PA to Richardson, TX and then to Bolingbrooke, IL before finally returning to the area of Philadelphia. He traveled daily by train to Fifth Avenue in Manhattan, New York, so that his family could stay near Philadelphia. When Standard Brands merged with Nabisco and moved to Moorestown, NJ, it commuted two hours each way by car.

He lived by the Latin motto of the Oblates of St. Francis de Sales who taught him at North Catholic: “Tenui Nec Dimittam – Seize life and never let go.”

He loved taking his family to Avalon every summer. He had a Manhattan and a martini, in one order or the other. He loved classical music. He liked to watch the Phillies game on a Sunday and tinker in his garage while smoking his cigar. He enjoyed following the stock market and buying and selling stocks. He never missed an Eagles game.
