Daniel married Denice Baser on May 19, 2001 in Pilot Point, TX. He graduated from Mart High School in 1983 and shortly after he became a member of the UAW Local 100 in Dallas. He is survived by his wife, Denice of Aubrey, TX; father, George Lane of Gun Barrel City, TX; mother, Patricia Ziegler of Roanoke, TX; son, Brendan Lane of Denton, TX; four daughters, Rachel Lane and Cassidy Blair both of Denton, TX, Elizabeth Hitcelberg and Caitlin Adams-Kenney; two grandchildren, Lane Weaver and Cullen Cavner both of Denton, TX; two brothers, Don Potosky and wife Donna of Royce City, TX and Todd Lane and wife Suzanne of Midlothian, TX; sister, Wyndy Lane of Irving, TX; nephew, Garrett Lane of Highland Village, TX; and niece, Madison Potosky. Daniel was preceded in death by grandparents, Arthur and Madge Zeigler; uncle and aunt, Dan and Joan Zeigler; and grandparents, King and Aurelia Lane. Daniel loved to spend time with his children and grandsons. He loved to read to them and to play with trains and cars with them. In his free time, he enjoyed being outside with his trees, plants and rocks, playing his music as loud as he could while watching the birds and working on his waterfall. He was a man of God, who loved to read his Bible. Daniel was the kind of person who would feed, clothe, and offer you shelter you if he could. He will be remembered for his kind smile, infectious laugh, and big heart. His grandchildren will remember him for his giant bear hugs, being the "cool" grandpa, and how proud he was of them. His children will remember him as their protector who would move Heaven and Earth for them. A memorial service will be held at 3:00PM, Saturday, January 30, 2021 at Slay Memorial Chapel in Aubrey, TX with Rev. John Theisen officiating. Online condolences may be shared at www.slaymemorialfuneralhome.com. The Lane family respectfully requests that all attendees wear a mask and practice physical distancing for the safety of those who are fragile or have health issues. Arrangements are under the direction of Terri Slay and Slay Memorial Funeral Center.
