Daniel 'Dan' Carignan

Daniel R. Dan Carignan, 44, of Keene died Sunday July 12, 2009 at the Cheshire Medical Center in Keene after a very sudden illness.

Dan was born on April 5, 1965 in Lowell, Massachusetts, he was the son of Roger and Shirley (Rocheleau) Carignan and had attended schools in Lowell. He had lived in Lowell until moving to New Hampshire in 1999.

Dan was a roofer by trade and had owned and operated his own roofing business for many years. He was a Master Roofer, which allowed him to offer his customers anything from metal roofs to standard shingles, and everything in between. He always made sure every last detail was attended to, no matter how big or how small the roof was.

He was a great father, relating perfectly with his children. No one could ask for a better dad, and he will always be known for being a fair and honest dad who saw to all of his familys needs. Dan will be remembered for his great sense of humor and for being quite a character. His generosity and willingness to help others will also be missed.

Dan was preceded in death by his father, Roger Carignan on November 19, 2008.
