Daniel D. Tolman
October 13, 1948 — December 5, 2021
Wherever a beautiful soul has been, there is a trail of beautiful memories.
Daniel "Dan" Tolman, of Casper Wyoming passed away unexpectedly on December 5, 2021 of cardiac failure. His family is deeply saddened by his death, but in true Dan fashion he did what he wanted and gained his angel wings without filling out the proper paperwork.
Dan was born on October 13, 1948 to Wilda and Charles Tolman, in Greybull Wyoming. Dan spent his early childhood in Douglas Wyoming, moving to Casper shortly after his father's passing. Dan attended Kelly Walsh High School and was in the first Junior Class to attend when the school opened, that year there were no seniors attending Kelly Walsh, so he was able to be part of the first senior Class at Kelly Walsh graduating in 1966. At the time of Dan's graduation he was working as an orderly at Natrona County Memorial Hospital, (Later known as the Wyoming Medical Center). Dan went on to become an EMT/Paramedic and was very good at what he did. He was well known around the hospital as the "splint master". In 2006 Dan suffered a heart attack which resulted in Dan having an anoxic brain injury that of course changed Dan's life path. Dan became the person that needed care rather than the caregiver but he never lost the ability to know when someone needed help and would ask "are you ok"? Dan loved dogs, horses and children in that order. Dan always had a grand sense of humor and loved nothing more than to pull a good prank on his staff and to tattle on them. Dan found his forever place at RCR Inspirations in 2010 and was much loved by all his staff and friends who knew him there. To put it quite simply Dan was the best and will be forever in our hearts.
Dan was preceded in death by his parents, his sister Patsy and the love of his life, his wife Barbara. He is survived by his daughter Cortnie Colebert of Bar Nunn, his son-in-law Tim, grandson Timmy and his friends that became family at RCR Inspirations.
