I'm saddened by this news, but uplifted to know that so many people knew about and cared for this man. Around 2000-2001 I used to see "Santa" in the patch of woods between Fan Boy Comics and UNCW. I'd say hi and share a Hardees bisuit with him on occassion. I moved out of town for a few years and then came back to live in Ogden. Whatdayaknow--I see Santa again! Shared a few $$ and some food on occassion, but always wanted to do something more...and sadly never did. The last time I spoke with him was about two weeks ago and he was laughing at the seagulls trying to balance on the light post in the Roses parking lot. Reading these comments, it sounds like Dane really was a good, kind man, and that I should have stopped and shared with him more often. Rest gently and peacefully buddy...I'll miss you. God bless.
