Sep 5, 1947 – Nov 11, 2006

Daniel M. Baltic, 59, died at United Hospital System Kenosha Memorial Hospital on Saturday, November 11, 2006 after a courageous battle with cancer. He was born in Wakefield, MI on September 5, 1947 to the late Donald and Anna Katherine (nee: Brockbank) Baltic. On September 16, 1967, he married the former Barbara Salmi in Wakefield, MI. Dan worked as a building engineer for the Chicago District Council of Carpenters where he developed many great friendships in which he truly valued. He was also a member of the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America Local 1693 (millwrights). He enjoyed his free time collecting and restoring cars but was happiest in the surroundings of his family and friends. In addition to his loving wife, Barbara of Kenosha, his survivors include his sons, Don Christopher (Jennifer) Baltic of Racine, Jason Michael (Christine) Baltic of Kenosha; grandchildren, Samantha and Elizabeth Baltic of Racine; sister, Marjorie (Stanley) Kanaby of Foster City, MI; sister-in-law, Judith (Dan) Jaroch of Nashotah, WI; nieces, Heather and Haley Jaroch of Nashotah; as well as many other relatives and dear friends. Family and friends are invited to meet in the Draeger-Langendorf Funeral Home on Friday, November 17, 2006 7:00 p.m. for a service celebrating Dan’s life. There will be time to visit with his family from 5-7 p.m. His family has suggested memorials to the American Cancer Society.

    God saw you getting tired, When a cure was not to be. So He wrapped his arms around you, and whispered, “Come to me”.

    In life Dan made his presence known and we cherished the friendship he offered. In death, what a void has been left for those of us who called Dan our friend.

    My condolences go out to all of the Baltic family and to all who were close to Dan.
    I have worked with Dan ever since he took the reins over for his buddy Robert Stiff.
    His dry sense of humor will surely be missed.

    Dan was truly my “sunshine,” and I will forever thank God for allowing our paths to cross. I appreciated being able to glean from the wealth of wisdom imparted to me. I am grateful for ever having an opportunity to call him “friend,” and I will miss him tremendously.

    My thoughts and prayers are with all of you. The world was a brighter place with Danny in it. I will remember him everytime I see a Classic car or hear a Harley engine. The District Council won’t be the same without him but I know he will be watching over all of us.

    I will miss you Dan. You were my consultant and second opinion on most of my mechanical projects. Even if I thought I knew the answer, I verified it with you. I admired you for all of the projects you did. We talked about military service, I will miss that.

    I extend my sympathy to the family. Dan left us about 25 years to soon. I hope his family was able to absorb some of his knowledge.

    I will rember Dan wheneve I have one of my issues that he helped me with, but I know it will take a long time, if ever, to find another like him.

    When you work closely with someone you rely on that person to give a kind word on a bad day, laugh with you during an insane time or just listen to you. Dan did all of these things for me. He was not just a co-worker but he was my friend. I will think of Dan every time I pass 12 E. Erie, see a nice motorcycle or drink a great red wine. Find peace and rest my friend.

  21. Sonia Magana says

    I know I’m not the only one that will miss Dan. I am only one of many that called Dan their friend. Dan is gone but his memory will always be with me. I hope time will ease your families heartache.

    I have worked for the Chicago Carpenters Pension dept for the last 8 years and during my time here. I had the pleasure of laughing and befriending Dan. In the mornings,coming into the building i would run into Dan by the elevator “i’d say” Dan you still here? Have you been here all weekend? and he would say yap! with a SMILE. Later in the day he would make his way to the pension dept to say hello to us girls and SMILE. He’d always have a smile. My Prayers and sincerest condolences to your entire family. He will be missed.

Testimonials

December 18, 2024

Words cannot even begin to express the tremendous gratitude our family has for a team like the one at Draeger-Langendorf Funeral Home & Crematory. Thank you for the gentle lovely care over our mother Delia (Rosa) Balderas. Never having had a direct experience with a funeral home to this extent we didn’t know what to expect. We didn’t have a clue that they would step right in and have the most comforting team surrounding us that thought of ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING for anyone in our position. It was very evident from the first discussion on the phone that they were already well prepared to handle every little detail for us that we weren’t even aware would be required. Mark and his team truly eased so much of the unknown worries right out of our path, and left room for us to just focus on the small personal details we wanted for our mom. It was nice to know that all cost involved was in black and white on their site as well as on paper at our first meeting. Leaving no room for question or doubt what so ever with any fee involved. It was truly a blessing to have everything written out so well and simplified with various price range options in a time that we needed crystal clear direction. Its been beautiful to see that their care and service didn’t stop after our mom’s service came to an end. They continue to be in communication with immediate responses as questions arise along the way. God bless Mark, and the entire compassionate team, to be around to guide many many more for generations to come through life’s most difficult times. You are all truly amazing.

 

Hilda Balderas
