Daniel worked several years for Heartwood where he developed a passion for wood working, which lead to contract construction work in Indianapolis. He was a great handyman that loved helping others. He also enjoyed working outside in the yard.
Daniel was a natural born athlete who excelled in football and basketball as a youth. He always prided himself on being FIRST during football or basketball drills. During his first year of youth league football Daniel scored a 99-yard touchdown for the Batesville Bombers. He was fast, extremely competitive and always wanted to win. His coaches often remarked on his talent, effort and attitude. Growing up he loved to watch the Bengals and the Reds, and despite their winning or losing seasons, he stayed an avid fan of both.
Daniel loved spending time with his sons, Brennan and Payton. He enjoyed watching them participate in their sports and was so proud of their accomplishments. While he loved to be outside throwing a ball, playing basketball, swimming, or riding bikes with his kids, he also loved being inside playing board games or watching a good movie with them.
Daniel was a talented artist who enjoyed drawing and creating music. He loved to sing karaoke and actually was pretty good. He enjoyed cooking and making big meals for his family.
