Between 5 and 6am this morning I got a call from Ken Drevnick. At 5am this morning he was informed that his son and our friend Dan had been killed in Iraq.
I spent all day thinking of anyone that needed to hear the news other than this informal method. I hope that everyone has heard before they see it here.
As I am entering this they are talking about the 3 that were killed on the news.
I will keep this forum updated with any details of the funeral. It will be about a week.
Keep all in your thoughts and Prayers.

Our thoughts and prayers to you Ken and Julie, as Dan was very proud to serve his country we also are very proud to have known him.
I also had the privilege to talk with Dan while home at Rock Falls that weekend.
May God grant you peace in knowing Dan is home.
Love your Racing Family

Last nite I read a news release that Governor Pawlenty ordered that all U.S.and Minnesota flags be flown at half-staff at the Capital Complex and other State Building and Monument Grounds today for Daniel P. Drevnick and tomorrow for James D. Wertish,,,after lowering my Flag this morning I started to think no matter how sad this Day is,,,It is a Celebration of Dan's Life!I need to go now and help Celebrate on this sad day. Take Care,Joe
