Daniel E. Feuerborn, age 65, passed away at home in Garnett, Kansas on January 30, 2023.
Daniel Earl Feuerborn was born on November 30, 1957 in Garnett, Kansas. He was the sixth of eleven children born to Clifford and Patricia (Nolan) Feuerborn. Dan grew up in Greeley and graduated from Garnett High School with the class of 1976, and he enjoyed many of those relationships throughout the rest of his life. Following high school, Dan started working in various construction jobs throughout the US for several years. On a beautiful sunny, February 18, 1984 Dan married Geralyn (Scherman) Feuerborn in Paola, Kansas, where they first made their home. Their union was blessed with three children, Sarah, Isaac, and Caleb. In 1989 they moved to their current home north of Garnett. In 2013 Dan retired from Local 101 Heavy Equipment Operators Union, after thirty five plus years. In his free time he loved playing pool, and trips to the casino, but the highlight of his days was the time he was able to spend with his grandchildren. Dan was very generous with his time and talents, he was always willing to lend a hand wherever he could. Coming from a large family meant there were plenty of opportunities to get together and Dan enjoyed spending time with his family and friends. Wednesday nights with pork chops and Survivor on tv will not be the same without Dan.
