Steele,
Daniel Joseph was born to Harriet Elizabeth Tilford on October 29, 1944
in Newburgh, NY. Daniel died May 11, 2012. Raised solely by his mother,
they lived a very modest life. His mother's love and encouragement
instilled in Dan an ethic of hard work and achievement. At age fourteen,
Dan began working and continued to work for the rest of his life. His
plan was to retire this fall, once a home contracted to be built was
completed in the Cincinnati area. In 1963, following graduation from
Newburgh Free Academy, Dan enlisted in the Air Force where after
completion of basic training, was stationed at Plattsburgh AFB in
upstate New York. His assignment as an aircraft mechanic introduced him
to a life-long love for and career in aviation. Dan married his high
school sweetheart, Lynn Diener, on Auigust 29, 1964. This August, they
would have celebrated 48 years of marriage. Upon discharge from the
military, Dan began working for The Boeing Co. in Seattle where he
worked nights and attended Seattle Community College during the day to
obtain his Airframe and Powerplant License. A highlight of that job was
working as the crew chief on the first flight of the Boeing 737 from
Seattle to New York. Dan worked for several airlines over the following
years before being approached by General Electric in 1974 to work in
field service and spare parts sales positions over the next 19 years.
These positions moved the family, which had now increased to four having
become father to son, Tim, and daughter, Allison, to locations in Texas,
California, and Ohio. Dan continued in the aerospace industry with other
companies of the next 19 years, and during all of these jobs, he
continued to earn his college degrees including his executive MBA from
Xavier University in Cincinnati, OH. His career afforded him the
opportunity to travel the world and meet many wonderful people on his
journey. Dan's most important and favorite role of the last two years
was being Papa to 2 1/2 year old granddaughter, Kerielle Lynn, whom he
absolutely adored. In addition, he was looking forward to the expected
arrival in June of his second granddaughter, Kenleigh. She arrived one
month to the day of his death, and we like to think that God allowed him
to help escort her into the world with much delight. Hence, her middle
name is Danielle. Dan was, as most of us know, a "workaholic," always
dedicated to his employers, taking on more than the average and
obviously loving the challenges it all brought. Family always wondered
what he would do when he retired, but his "honey do list" would have
been long! He was looking forward to retiring this fall and stopping to
"smell the roses" as we say. He thoroughly enjoyed time shared with
family and close friends when time permitted. Lynn's family accepted Dan
immediately and loved him dearly; enjoying times shared together. Dan,
being an only child, was pleased to feel surrounded by their love. Dan
will be remembered above all as a warm, genial man as well as a loving
husband, father, Papa, friend, and mentor to many. His deep love for his
family and life, compassion for people, witty sense of humor, hard work
ethic, and rare ability to get along with just about anyone, will
forever live in our hearts and minds. His "infectious" laugh, as one
colleague said, will be missed forever. The Memorial Service will be
held at Mueller Parker Funeral Home on Saturday, September 8, 2012 at
11:00 AM followed by a reception. Memorials can be made online to Boys
and Girls Club of America (www.bgca.org
) and to The Colon Club (www.colonclub.com
