Dan was a cherished husband to Casey and a devoted father to their three sons, Danny, Grayson, and Lucas. He was remembered by the North Colonie Baseball family as a valued member whose presence, encouragement, and support for his boys meant so much to those around him.
His commitment to fatherhood extended beyond simply cheering from the sidelines. He was described by his family as a phenomenal father, coach, and role model who took pride in supporting his children. His influence and dedication created memories that his loved ones will carry forward.
On October 22, Dan was admitted to an intensive care unit in Orlando after suffering injuries in an accident during the family’s vacation. Despite the family’s hopes, he sadly passed away on November 4.
Following his death, a GoFundMe campaign was established to support Casey and the boys with unexpected medical expenses, the cost of bringing Dan home, funeral arrangements, childcare, and household bills.
As the Neary family faces this devastating loss, messages of support and generosity reflect the impact Dan had on others. His love for his family and the memories he created will remain a lasting part of his legacy.
