During Dan’s 30 years of dedicated service to Allegany County, he was mentor, friend, and confidant to so many, and he provided the Legislative Board with sound legal advice and representation.
Dan was a beloved family man, engaged in many community organizations, and public servant. He stands out as a role model that we can all look to for inspiration. Allegany County has lost a great friend and community member with the passing of Dan Guiney.
