dave daansen

  Dave was born May 24, 1949 in Seabreeze, NY to Dorothea and William Daansen. He spent his childhood on Lake Ontario in the shadow of the amusement park. From an early age, Dave’s passion was music, playing primarily trumpet in school but excelling at any instrument he picked up. 

     Dave taught himself to play guitar after he first heard Jimi Hendrix play, and the bass guitar would become the instrument for which he was known. He would also become accomplished on the drums and keyboard. After high school, Dave took his music on the road with bands such as Swift Kick, Harlot and briefly with Dokken and Ozzy Osbourne. That musical career led him to almost every state in the nation, as well as to Europe, Southeast Asia and Japan.

     After years on the road, Dave found himself back in Rochester where he met his future wife, Patty (McQuillen Panepento) and they were married in 1997. Dave continued to tour and play music in the Rochester area with Dave Donnelly, High Noon (the WBEE house band), PapaNut, the Chris Beard band and so many others, all while calling Rochester home. In 2015, an effort to be closer to family led Dave and Patty to move to LeRoy, NY where they could enjoy more family time, especially attending their grandchildren’s games and activities. Dave’s other passions were golf, baseball especially the NY Yankees and simple family times (though he never grew to understand Dungeon and Dragons despite his grandchildren’s attempts). 

     Dave is survived by a daughter, Annette (Mike Sr.) Junot and their children, Zak and Amanda Lippa, Mike Jr. and Brennan Junot, all of Rochester, and two sons, John and Jeffrey Daansen and his two children of Japan.

     Dave leaves Patty’s children, who he loved as his own: Peter (Chrissy) Panepento and their girls, Jessica (Jake) Keymel, Morgan (Fiancé Chris Elsbree) Panepento and Mary Lynn Panepento, all of Walworth, NY, Dave (Michelle) Panepento and daughter Anna, and Rob (Jill) Panepento and sons John and Jayce, all of LeRoy, NY.

     Also surviving are great-grandchildren Maddy and Riley Keymel, and Greyson Elsbree.

     Dave leaves a sister, Susan (Steve) Sander of North Carolina, and a foster-sister and brother, Lynn Connelly and Bill Bloom (Judy), both of Seabreeze, NY. Brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law include Mary Lynn (McQuillen) Jacko of Pittsburgh, Pa, Steve (Sheila) McQuillen of Stafford, NY, Pete (Judy) McQuillen of LeRoy, Tim (Sue) McQuillen of Byron, NY and Amy (McQuillen) Sturm of Erie, Pa. as well as numerous nieces and nephews.

     Last but not least is his beloved dog Jack.

     Dave is pre-deceased by his parents and a brother-in-law, Terry (Tuba) McQuillen.

     Patty would like to thank the staff of Premier Genesee who showed Dave such compassion and caring especially Careesa, Kristy and Mercedes and so many others.

     To recognize the hours of enjoyment that Dave received from watching his grandkids perform, memorials can be made to either LeRoy High School Music Dept. 9300 South St. Rd. LeRoy, NY, or to the Girls’ Softball Program at Notre Dame High School, 73 Union St. Batavia NY.

     Family and friends may call on Saturday, May 4 from 2 ~ 5 PM at the Falcone Family Funeral & Cremation Service Inc., 8700 Lake St. Rd., LeRoy, where his Celebration of Life Service will be held at 5:00 PM.

     Your memories and condolences may be shared with Dave’s family at www.falconefuneralhome.com

Vincent Lawrence George

December 22, 1945 – April 24, 2024. Vincent Lawrence George, 78, passed away peacefully in Chicago after a long and courageous fight with lung cancer.

Vince was born in December 1945 in Batavia, NY to the late Lawrence B. and Mary Arlene George of Elba, NY. From a young age, Vince worked alongside his parents and family members at George’s Dairy, founded by Vince’s grandparents Sylvester and Mary Petz George almost 100 years ago. To this day, Genesee County residents remember George’s Dairy for its quality milk and ice cream delivered with pride by the George family. Vince discovered many of his truest passions at an early age, such as baseball, trains, westerns, eating, and teasing the people he loved, all of which he pursued vigorously the rest of his life.

Graduating salutatorian at Elba Central School in 1963, he attended St. Bonaventure University, class of 1967, majoring in accounting. In 1967, Vince was a member of the first MBA class at the University of Notre Dame, graduating in 1973. After working at Price Waterhouse in Philadelphia from 1973-78, Vince moved to Dallas to work as Tax Director for the Trammell
Crow Company, a leading commercial real estate developer. He remained at Trammell Crow the next twenty years, working various leadership positions in venture capital and finance. For the final phase of his career, Vince worked at Centex and Panattoni Development Company in Dallas.

His favorite activities with his wife, Cynthia and children, Erika and Matthew, included traveling, watching movies, relaxing at Cedar Creek Lake and planning their next meal. He was a constant presence as a school volunteer and active member of Northridge Presbyterian Church.

When not traveling the world (he and Cindy visited over 150 countries together), he loved to visit his five grandchildren in San Antonio and Chicago. In Dallas, he volunteered as an English teacher at Literacy Achieves, as well as a docent at the George W. Bush Presidential Library. A week after visiting his seventh and final continent (Antarctica) with Cindy, Vince was diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer, fighting the disease for the next fourteen months until he passed away.

Vince was predeceased by his parents, his parents-in-law, James and Shirley Johnston, and Evelyn Johnston, his brother-in-law, Dr. John C. Gessner, his sister-in-law, Susan Johnston, and his niece, Nicole Wingate. He is survived by his wife of 40 years, Cynthia Jean Johnston George, daughter Erika (Blake) Romney of San Antonio, TX and son Matthew (Claire) George
of Chicago, IL, beloved grandchildren, Annie, Greyson, Ford and baby Romney (expected in August), and Shirley and Eamon George. Vince is also survived by his sisters, Elizabeth (Joseph) Ivers of Houston, TX and Margaret George of Saint Paul, MN, his brother-in-law Randy (Carolyn) Johnston of Knoxville, TN, seven nieces and nephews, aunt Shirley George
(Thomas) Edbauer of North Tonawanda, NY and numerous cousins.

Vince was one-of-a-kind in his intelligence, generosity, and goodness. We love you, and still hear your laugh.

A memorial service will be held at Northridge Presbyterian Church (6920 Bob O Link Drive, Dallas, Tx, 75214) on Friday, May 3rd, at 10am CDT. For those unable to travel, the service will be livestreamed here. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Northridge Presbyterian Church’s “Memorials and Honoraria” page, typing Vince’s name under “Please Specify.” The link can be found here.

September 10, 1962 -  April 22, 2024

Dan passed away peacefully surrounded by his wife Sue and his friends at Vanderbilt Medical Center in Nashville, Tennessee following a traumatic accident.  He was in Nashville doing what he enjoyed most; exploring a new place and meeting new people.  Dan loved people.

    Daniel James Cory was born September 10, 1962 to George and Jane Cory, joining big brother, Dennis to make a great little family of 4.  Dan was proud to be from LeRoy/Limerock.  Family history and the history of his town meant the world to him. He was the local historian among his group of friends and family. 

     Dan graduated from LeRoy HS in 1980.  He continued to keep in touch with his classmates, being a member of the reunion committees.  He loved reconnecting and reminiscing with his classmates and former teachers. 

     Dan attended Rochester Institute of Technology, receiving a certificate in Tooling and Machining from the School of Applied Industrial Studies.  He worked as a tool maker at Kodak for 25 years.  He was encouraged to become a teaching assistant at the Applied Technical Center at Monroe Community College.  He eventually became an adjunct professor, teaching the next generation of tool makers.  Dan found a passion in teaching and often said he had missed his calling. 

     In 2002, Dan met his wife Sue, the love of his life, on a blind date.  They were married in October of 2005 and have enjoyed a great life with friends and family.  Dan became a Holley Hawk, fully supporting and attending the many activities that Sue, retired MS/HS Principal, was involved in.  He loved being involved with the faculty and students of Holley. He was a very supportive and loving husband.  Dan and Sue have done a lot of traveling and were making plans to share a lot more experiences and fun together.  They lived in East Irondequoit before building their dream home in Webster in 2014. Dan was fully involved in the construction process.  His attention to detail was spectacular, researching the many items that go into the building of a new home. 

     Dan was very sociable and loved being with people.  He valued his friendships and his time “shooting the breeze” with those around him.  If you knew Dan you knew a very special man.  He loved deeply and if you were a friend, you were a friend for life.  Dan was friendly and kind.  He loved sharing an old memory or an old story.   

     Family was very important to Dan.  He valued the time that he got to spend with them.  He supported them through the good times as well as through the tough times. 

     Dan is survived by his wife, Susan Cory (Menga).  His mother, Jane Cory, currently living at Heather Heights Assisted Living in Pittsford.  He is also survived by many other relatives and close friends who are family.
