Dana,
You were not my biological Dad. You were my bonus father. You were kind, funny, a sweet gentle soul. You were so knowledgable about wild and domestic flowers. You knew so much about the Indian medicinal healing plants.
You are loved by so many people. I will always cherish the memories. Most importantly, thank you for loving my mom.
Rest easy, Dana!

Always will remember my cousin Dana such a knowledgeable person. I believe he got that love of plants from our Grandpa Julius Rainville who also had love for nature and plants. I remember the old brook behind his house. Grandpa would take us for walks there when we visited. Dana you will be missed by many. Here’s to the good life in heaven you so deserve.

I'll never forget Dana being such a wealth of knowledge, so kind and measured in how he'd share it. He didn't bat an eye when I asked him to teach me to skin a raccoon, now a forever skill I'll have from Dana. I've passed that skill on to my oldest son. Thanks Dana!

My best memory of my dad was he would always have a blonde joke or two. I'll never forget you are always in my heart. I'll see you soon up in heaven then you can tell all the blonde jokes I might have missed. I love you Dad forever and always.
