Dan was an adoring father to his children and cherished every moment spent with them, especially when cheering them on at their various sporting events over the years.

Dan continued to make his mark on the industry, ultimately opening the family office of Pablo Capital in 2012, where he remained until his death. His dedication and expertise earned him the respect and admiration of colleagues and clients alike.

During his free time, Dan found joy in a variety of activities, including hunting, fishing, golfing, and spending time with his loved ones. He also cherished trips to the family farm, the beach and was a member of Christ Episcopal Church, Pablo Creek Club and the Ponte Vedra Inn & Club.
