After several years at the barber shop, Dan changed career paths to become an off-machine operator, and later an electrician, at Appleton Papers in Combined Locks until his retirement in July of 2001. Dan was an honest, hardworking, and loving man who was always there to help in times of need and celebrate in times of joy. He enjoyed golfing, fishing, and spending time with his family.
