Daniel was a unique and very special man who bedazzled me with his many talents, wit and intelligence. He was a chess Master, a boxer, an engineer and a self-taught, multilinguist who’d get into long conversations with NYC taxi drivers (and almost anyone else he’d run across whose native language wasn’t English), always in their mother tongue. And just for the challenge, he’d run the occasional marathon.
I cherish the memories of the bond that my parents shared with Dan and Iris as well. All four instantly clicked and truly savored the times they shared at family occasions or just over a meal.

I am blessed to have had Daniel in my life in a very special way. Dan’s influence on me will never be diminished.
From Reyna and me, we offer our most profound sympathy, condolences and love to the entire family.
RIP Dan ❤️
One-of-a-kind.
