HOARD, Daniel G.
Of Kalamazoo

Dan grew up lived most of his life Kalamazoo. He graduated in 1974 from Dawntreader Alternative Highschool. He served a short time in the military and was honorably discharged. Dan married Mary Downes in 1980 and had their son Daniel Kenneth. Their marriage ended but Dan never let that interfere with the relationship with his son. Daniel has a daughter, Amber, who was adored by her Papa. Dan was an avid hunter, loved Louie L'mar Westerns, and was a content loner always looking for the next adventure. In 1995 he married Cheryl Koerts and together they welcomed Gabrielle Rose into the world. Dan had a great love for nature, dogs, computers, and adventures. He was a truck driver by trade. He loved his Harley and loved to ride. But, there was nothing that compared to his dedication to his son, daughter, and service to the Lord. Dan was a devoted member of the Kalamazoo First Assembly of God Church. Diagnosed with kidney cancer his initial response was concern for his daughter and yet eager to serve the Lord in whatever came his way. His faith never waivered... Surviving are his son Daniel, his daughter Gabrielle, and his grand daughter Amber. Also surviving are his brother Greg, two sisters Debbie and Brenda, three half sisters Sherry, Laura and Carrie, his grandmother Mary Bruystens, three nieces, a nephew, aunts, uncles, and cousins. Contributions can be made to the Dream Center, 1122 Portage Rd., Kalamazoo, MI, 49001, in honor of Dan, where he volunteered regularly. One Tin Soldier rides away...with our Lord by his side.
