Dane was a graduate of Potosi R-3 High School and attended Mineral Area College. Dane was employed by Chrysler for several years before moving to the state of Louisiana and opening an air conditioning and refrigeration business known as A-Aron Heating, Cooling and Refrigeration.

Dane professed faith in Christ at an early age and became a member of the Potosi Southern Baptist church and upon relocating moved his membership to Calilean Missionary Baptist Church in Valley Park, Missouri. Dane loved gospel music and later sang bass in a men’s gospel group who traveled around the Jacksonville area but he would tell you his greatest joy was being chosen by Billy Graham’s Evangelistic Team to counsel in the 2001 Jacksonville Crusade. Dane also loved the great outdoors. In his earlier years his favorite hobbies included hunting, fishing and camping. In recent years after becoming disabled he formed Bible study groups in whatever care facility he was residing in at the time.
