Patty, oh my I am so very sorry for your lost. I was much surprised to learn of Dan's passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you during your grieving process. Dan was a very nice man and made the best hotdogs in Colorado Springs at one time. It's been years since I saw Dan, but I remember how happy the two of you were. I wish I was near you to gives you hugs. My condolences are also extended to the entire Neilsen family.
