Thinking of my lovely Auntie, Uncles and Cousin Charlotte who have looked after Uncle Dan until his final hour. I’ll miss him speaking Deutsch and never forget his eyelids inside out trick! RIP Uncle Dan, have a pint up there with your big brother Tom xxx

Uncle Dan, what a character! Always with a story about football. Thinking of all the people who had the pleasure to have him in their lives, specially Eileen, Charlotte, Pops, all his brothers, nephews and niece’s. Rest peacefully x

The loveliest of gentleman. Always up for fun and laughs. A Great Blue.💙

My last goodbye for your final trip. So many happy memories from my time growing up with you around. From trying to teach me how to swim at New Brighton outdoor pool, to pulling me out of my first school fight, by telling me not to boot the boy while he’s still on the ground and so much more. You will be sorely missed. Your loving Nephew.

I met Uncle Dan in Munich, a coincidence, he was visiting friends and I was on a football trip with mufc. Dan met all my friends and had a couple of Paulanas with us. He told us we should go to a certain restaurant but the menu was tricky to understand!. We decided he’d come show us but didn’t want to eat. We walked in and sat down, 6 man united supporters, Dan followed us in and had changed into an Everton top. My my mates were in hysterics and all loved Dan. RIP Friend

Rest in eternal peace Dan, you’re in great company x

Eileen and family: So sorry to hear that Dan has passed, condolences to all xx
