Dan was born on October 24, 1961 outside of Milwaukee, WI. He was adopted by Al and Beth Sperger with the assistance of Catholic Social Services.
Dan and his family lived briefly in Tomah, WI before the family settled in Eau Claire. Dan had a wonderful childhood playing various sports including hockey and football.

He later moved to Red Wing, MN, to be near his family, where he worked at Red Wing Shoe for 13 years. Dan's true passions were weight lifting and the Packers. Dan set a Wisconsin state power lifting record that made him extremely proud. He was a passionate Green Bay Packer fan. He never missed watching a game and knew every stat about the Packers. Dan grew up spending many weekends at the "Shafer's Acres" farm in Eau Galle, WI. He often spoke of his fond memories of the farm, the weekend gatherings with the entire family, and his dad, Al, as the Wagon Master. Dan had great love for his parents and his sister, Katy.
He is survived by his sister Katy and his brother-in-law, Bob Welsch; nephews, Alex and Zachary Radosevich, and his large and extended family.
