He enjoyed every minute of his life and these last few years were no exception.ĭan went to work for Bay State Forestry in 1981 where he has been committed to sustainable forestry for the last 33 years. When he wasn’t working, he could be found enjoying his 31 acre Tree Farm in Francestown, sitting on the porch playing the harmonica and singing loud French songs with his friends and family, walking his ‘woods road’ on his property, playing ‘Bazooka Joe’ in his tractor and pulling his new wagon built by his son-in-law, Dan, and gardening and canning his coveted ‘Garden Special’. Dan loved life, had a passion for his forestry career, his friends and family.
