Daniel Eugene Haws

April 16, 1994 — June 11, 2022

Dan The Man With deepest sorrow, we announce that Daniel Eugene Haws III took his walk with Jesus on June 11th, 2022. Daniel, known to his loved ones as little Dan, was born April 16th, 1994, in Portland Oregon. Those who knew Dan, even just a little, lost a shining light in their lives. Although only 28 at the time of his death, Dan affected many people in his lifetime. Dan was survived by and will be missed by his wife, Larissa and their two children Daniel Eugene Haws IV, Lola Elaine Haws, his mother Shannon LaVoone Imler, his step-dad Billy Imler, and his sister Ashley Nicole Arterberry. His dad Daniel Eugene Haws II, His Brother Jason Matthew Haws, his niece Presley Marie Mann, his nephew Harrison Ryan Arterberry, and so many other loved family members. Dan's greatest joy was his children and his family. Dan was known for being incredibly passionate about his work on the oil rigs in North Dakota. He excelled in the exacting nature this work required, with a bright future ahead of him. He made friends and earned the respect of so many of his peers. He was described as a “Dan the Man” and “advanced faster than anyone else.” Dan was Ridiculously funny; God gave him a humor that echoed through this world. His mother Shannon was his best friend, his rock, his guiding light. He loved being around family and friends, he never wanted to be alone and would offer help to all. He was stubborn in all the right ways. Dan was the life of the party and loved to dance and have a good time. There was no better soul than Dan. He inspired to make the world a better place, better for him, better for his kids. He wrote his own rules, he fought the normal of what the world put on him and he paved his own way. If you said he couldn’t do it, he would make sure he could. Dan was born for greatness and that is what he was. Dan, if you can send us down some answers, and some peace, we will do right by your babies. You made us all proud, it was an honor to love you, we will never be the same. As we mourn, we pray Build Me a Son, O Lord Build me a son, O Lord, who will be strong enough to know when he is weak, and brave enough to face himself when he is afraid; one who will be proud and unbending in honest defeat, and humble and gentle in victory. Build me a son whose wishbone will not be where his backbone should be; a son who will know Thee and that to know himself is the foundation stone of knowledge. Lead him, I pray, not in the path of ease and comfort, but under the stress and spur of difficulties and challenge. Here let him learn to stand up in the storm; here let him learn compassion for those who fail. Build me a son whose heart will be clean, whose goal will be high; a son who will master himself before he seeks to master other men; one who will learn to laugh, yet never forget how to weep; one who will reach into the future, yet never forget the past. And after all these things are his, add, I pray, enough of a sense of humor, so that he may always be serious, yet never take himself too seriously. Give him humility, so that he may always remember the simplicity of greatness, the open mind of true wisdom, the meekness of true strength.
