Condolence from Ken Mikalauskas on March 29th, 2018 4:58 PM

My deepest condolences to the Preszcator family. I played in The Chickens & UIC band with Danny and we shared many good memories together. I remember our talks in the car on the way to shows in London – Dan was a sweet man. He was a kind gentle-hearted man who loved his animals. I remember him cutting up one of those plastic beer can 6-pack holders because he couldn’t bear the idea of some bird being strangled by it. We will all miss him very much, but he is well remembered in the various music projects he was involved in. RIP Hack!

When I heard, all the great memories of Dan when we lived on Grenadier came flooding back. I’ll miss you, friend. Have a good Spirit journey, Dan.

Condolence from Fat Freddy on March 29th, 2018 7:03 PM

What the??!! I had no idea he wasn’t well. This is such terrible news I am literally shakin by it. I’m so sorry for his family’s heartbreak. Although we were not the best of friends I had a ton of respect for Danny. We shared a stage and his amp once and he firmly yet respectfully informed me it was proper to ask permission for such things. I was a newbie and have never forgotten that lesson. He will be missed by so many people who enjoyed the music as well. Many condolences to all.

R.I.P. Hack. Thanks for the memories.

Condolence from Murray Heywood on March 30th, 2018 7:24 PM

Randy & Brenda , Penny, Jeff, Joel and Becky (I will call you Becky because that is how your uncle Dan referred to you). I am utterly heartbroken about losing Danny. My deepest heartfelt sympathies go out to all of you. Dan and I go back almost as far as my memories can take me. We started playing hockey together when we were 8 or 9 years old and were friends from that point forward. Can’t tell you how many miles I traveled in Buds big green car with Danny at the wheel before I even had my drivers licence. The amount of times I was at your mom and dads and how they always treated me like family will never be forgotten. I absolutely loved your parents. I cannot separate Dan from my youth as they are synonymous. He was my rythym brother, my beat brother we literally played thousands of songs together on stages from Ontario to BC and traveled thousands upon thousands of miles together. When we were playing together we were joined at the hip. I lost a bit of myself with Dan’s passing, that cannot be replaced. He was there every time, to my right, from my drum kit, always there……. for all those years. You can all rest assured that you meant the world to Dan. Penny he loved you deeply, I know that without question. Randy you were his hero, I hope you know that!! Those are things that I know, from spending so much time with Dan , but knowing Dan, he may not have shared with you. I pray for peace and healing for the entire family through this.

God Bless

Murray, Dena, Tyler, Dillon and Jesse Heywood

Condolence from Leon Jensen on March 31st, 2018 11:40 PM

Penny, Randy, Brenda, and Family,

Hard to find words for such a sudden unexpected loss. We’ve had some great times with Bud, Alma and Dan. They all hold a special place in our hearts.

Bud used to book the back nine at Exeter Golf course on Sundays for us. First players on the course in the morning. Just the 2 of us looking for our lost golf balls.
We use to golf around Toronto as well and sometimes went fishing on the Island and Penguin Lake. I like to think he’s fishing and golfing with Bud during the days and jamming with all the great Rock Stars in the evenings and smiling from ear to ear.

I’m going to miss you Brother,

Leon

Condolence from Willemina Sennema on April 1st, 2018 9:10 AM

Penny, my heartfelt condolences to you and to your family with the death of your brother. The world tilts a little with such a loss. I wish you all love and strength in the days ahead.

Condolence from craig sylvester on April 1st, 2018 11:04 AM

I played with Danny as a child and have never forgotten him. He left a very big impression on me. Even as youngster Danny had big dreams he shared with me while sitting in the stands at the old fairgrounds. He wanted to always live life to the fullest. My heart cries today for the free spirit he was.

Condolence from Antonietta Fletcher on April 1st, 2018 11:41 AM

Penny, as I was thinking of you this morning I had a flashback to going to watch your brother’s band play in a bar. I have so many fond memories of you and your family. I will be forever grateful for their kindness when we graduated from Fanshawe. So sorry for your loss.

Condolence from Fraser Boyle on April 1st, 2018 1:04 PM
