He grew up in Elizabeth, CO for the first 16 years of his life. Halfway through his Junior year of high school, the family relocated their store and their home to Strasburg, CO.

A few years later, they started their family, to which they were blessed with three daughters: Denise, Darla and Dana.

Dan worked at gas plants for a while in the late eighties, then he found a new niche professionally as an insurance agent in 1990.
