The family later moved to Kenosha, WI where Dan attended Tremper High School, graduating in 1968. Dan was an accomplished football player, playing defensive tackle and voted most valuable player, by his team mates. Dan received a full scholarship and went on to play college football with Carthage College, Kenosha, WI, as an All American, All conference defensive tackle. Dan was later inducted to the Carthage College Football Hall of Fame. After college, Dan had two try outs with the NFL but in true fashion, Dan chose to "get a real job" and raise his family.

Dan then traveled between WI, TX and PA to serve as the Senior Executive Vice President of sales and manufacturing at the York Company until his diagnosis of lung cancer in 1999. Through the grace of God, top notch medical care and his family's support, Dan beat cancer and enjoyed 25 more years of life.

On May 25th, 1990, Dan married the love of his life, Rhonda Kandravi. Together, they celebrated 34 years of marriage and formed a wonderful family with their four children.
