The legacy of Dan's kind spirit, larger than life heart and his devotion to family and friends will carry on forever in his adored sons Casey and Marcelo.

Dan’s determination brought him to Hampton Roads and shortly after his arrival he became an inspiration to so many. In addition to Owner/President of Bowditch Ford, Dan built and developed the Peninsula to its greatest potential. His fearless drive as a visionary brought immeasurable change and hope to our local community. Dan was a generous supporter and contributor to countless charities, including Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church. As a philanthropist, he touched the lives of many people and was truly an inspiration to all who knew him. He was loyal, trustworthy and honest which perfectly complimented his extraordinary magnanimous spirit. Dan loved traveling, boating and collecting antiques. He had a great love for the arts, history and literature. His legacy will continue in his honor and he will forever be cherished by all those he touched.

Lambert; Family members Jessica, Angel, Lori, Dean, & Michelle; and several nieces and nephews; as well as the Buffa family.
