Daniel J. “Dan” Weyenberg, age 81, of Kimberly, passed away at Prairie Homes Assisted Living on Thursday, August 29, 2019 surrounded by his family.

Dan enjoyed spending time with family and friends, often at their cottage on Berry Lake; weekly date nights with his wife Lucy; family trips; and playing cards with friends. He loved woodworking, especially building furniture and toys for family and friends. He was always hardworking and his ability to fix anything was apparent in his every day life.

Dad

There are several ways to describe what the
word “Dad” means to us:
Integrity, a person with strong moral principles;
Industrious, a hardworking person;
Commitment, a dedicated and loyal person;
Dependable, a person who you can trust and rely on;
Supportive, a caring and encouraging person;
Any man can be a father
but only a few deserve to be called Dad.
Because of the type of man you have always been
it is the way we would describe you!
Thank you for being such a wonderful provider
for our family and a loving and supportive Dad.
Thank you for being our Dad!
We will miss you!
