Daniel is survived by numerous loving relatives and friends including his mother, Tracy Beede and his former fiancee Stephanie Sabin.

I am the daughter of a Marine who, fortunately, did not have to give his life in his war, which was Vietnam. I cry for all those who do give their lives. I know that they are welcomed into Heaven, but their families are put through hell. I pray that the family and friends of this young man will be comforted and take some pride in the fact that he was an exceptional person, with the courage and strength required to be a US Marine.
