Dana was known to everybody in his community and town of Miramichi, as a person that would be the first one to give a helping hand to anybody who needed it. He was our protector, and we could always rely on him for everything, and he would help without any hesitation. Dana was known for his wonderful smile, his big bear hugs, and his constant reminder of ‘I love you’. He was never afraid to show his love and appreciation to his family, especially to his children Aleshia (Richard), Madison and Zack. He always loved his wife Vicky and appreciated her for always taking such good care of Madison and Zack. He often spoke of his beautiful grandchildren Mya, Serena, and baby Rich.
