After graduation he was employed for over 30 years at Leigh Products/Milcor where he worked as a spray painter and a shop supervisor for many years. Dan loved fishing, hunting, and archery. In the years before his health declined, he participated in many archery competitions throughout the State. He also enjoyed many family vacations that were spent camping and at Big Bass Lake in Irons, MI. In 2002 he took a medical retirement after finding he needed both heart and lung transplants.
