Nafziger, Arthur Daniel "Dan" II,60, of Louisville, Kentucky, passed away on the evening of November 25, 2016. He was surrounded by those he loved and those who loved him. Dan was born on March 26, 1956 in Bloomington, Illinois to Arthur and Marjorie Nafziger. He graduated from Central Catholic High School in Bloomington, Illinois in 1974 and went on to obtain his degrees in Agriculture and Finance from Illinois State University, where he was also a member of the Alpha Tau Omega fraternity.
