Dana was a wonderful man of God. We had the joy of being in a Bible study with him for several years and he was such a humble man with so much wisdom. We know he is celebrating with Jesus.
Dana was a prominent member of the River Of Life Church, He especially shined in giving advice and insight into being a man of god in our Men’s Group at the church. He will be missed and will surely be waiting for us in heaven. Rest in Peace Dana Anderson.
