He was 55. 'Da'n had been a very active worker' for the legion ser~jng as secretary of the branch for many years: at the same time looking after ex-servicemen and their families while filling his duties as Service Officer. Dannie was one of the original members who started' our weekly binge in the Anglican church hall and was the reg· ular caller for many years. Dan was a member Bronte Legion needed, and will be sadly missed by the executive and members. - Ar'e you 001 active member 'Ilhe kind .that would he missed, Or 'are you just content 'l'h'alt your name !is on the WiISt ? Do you attend the mremgs And mingle .with the flock, Or do you sit at home land criticize the flock ?
