Dana P. Van Burgh

Dana P. Van Burgh passed away June 7 surrounded by family, friends, and his amazing Hospice care team.

Born June 20, 1932 in Casper, WY to Mary Lucile Geary and Dana P. Van Burgh, Sr.

He married Nora Rose Hoffman, also a Casper native, and they had three children, Christine, Dana III, and Gabrielle.

He was proud of his 38 years of teaching at Dean Morgan Jr High and his many years at Casper College, as well as 50 years of creating and leading Field Science alongside his best friends Beecher Strube and Terry Logue.

He is survived by his children, his grandchildren Carrie Allen, Chloe Magnifique (Reyveka), Gian Pieroni (Malena), and his great grandchildren Lux Travis and Luqui Pieroni.

A celebration of his life and legacy will held later this year.

In lieu of flowers, consider adding to the Van Burgh Family Scholarship at Casper College (contact the Casper College Foundation) or the Field Science Foundation (contact Hilltop Bank in Casper).

A full obituary will be published at a later date.
