We are deeply saddened to announce the passing of Daniel Gaede, who left us on January 9, 2025, at the age of 79 in Marysville, Washington.

Daniel was born on January 5, 1946, to his parents Chet and Wilma Gaede. He married the love of his life, Leigh, in 1983, and together they raised three wonderful children: Jennifer, Carley, and Cheyne.

Daniel was a proud grandparent to three grandchildren, who brought immense joy and laughter into his life.

He was a dedicated member of the Friend of Bill W organization, where he found strength, support, and lifelong friendships.

Daniel will be remembered for his quick wit, infectious laughter, and unwavering love for his family and friends. He will be deeply missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing him.
