He loved motorcycling and would drive for miles and miles with friends who became family. He was an avid trap shooter and belonged to many teams over the years. His proudest moment was when Gregg joined the Fond du Lac High School Trap Team and shot his first 25. Daniel also enjoyed working with and assisting Gregg to become an Eagle Scout.
