Goalie Helmet Custom-Painted in Dan's Memory
Dan's cousin, Mike Horowitz, won a State championship in 2005 as goalie for Randolph High School's lacrosse team, and was named "All State" goalie in 2007. He went on to play lacrosse at Muhlenberg College, where he was named two-time all Centennial Conference goalie. Mike is now the Assistant Coach for the Fairleigh Dickinson University lacrosse program and plays in the Player's Lacrosse League in Pennsylvania. Lacrosse is a big part of his life, and Mike had his goalie mask custom-painted in Dan's memory, so that Dan will be with him every time he walks onto the field.
"I was always so excited to hear that Dan was coming to one of my lacrosse games. For some reason, I always played my best when he was in the stands. So when it was time to get my mask painted, I knew it would be the perfect tribute.
Dan and I made countless trips to the mall with our grandpa as we always knew he would spoil each of us with a new pair of sneakers. Some of my favorite memories with Dan took place discussing our impeccable fashion sense with "Pop."
I wanted to incorporate a few things into this mask: Jordan sneakers (Dan's favorite), the state of New Jersey (both of our favorite), Dan's favorite quote, Mahwah and the University of Maryland, which are seen in the color scheme on each side of the mask, and the DZ foundation.
I'm so proud to wear a mask which pays homage to one of the coolest people I've ever known. I hope it continues to keep his memory alive just like his friends, family and the DZ Foundation have done such an incredible job of doing".

Thank you to Ryan Smith of Royal Essex Custom Airbrushing for his beautiful artwork.
