Daniel M. Hodgkiss, 67, of Saratoga, Wyoming, passed away on May 8, 2024, in Denver, Colorado, after a brief illness. Dan is survived by his mother, Nancy Hodgkiss; his brother and sister-in-law, Thomas and Karen Hodgkiss; nieces, Olivia Strother and Natalie Hodgkiss; and nephew, Thomas John Egeland. Dan was preceded in death by his wife, Helen Hodgkiss; his father, Donald Hodgkiss; and his sisters, Julie Hodgkiss and Laurie Egeland.
Dan, a Petoskey (Michigan) High School graduate in 1974 and Idaho State University in 1980, dedicated his career to mining operations and accounting. His passion and expertise led him to successfully run Platte Valley Accounting in Saratoga, Wyoming, for twenty-five years. For many years, he impacted the community by serving as a valuable member of the Carbon Power and Light Board of Directors. His active involvement in the Saratoga Lion’s Club further demonstrated his commitment to service.
We will remember Dan for his extensive network of lifelong friends, his sense of humor, and his use of “Pard” as a term of endearment to those close to him. Our family would like to thank the Saratoga Police Department, the Medical Center of Aurora, and Denver Hospice care teams. Memorials can be made to the Lion’s Club, the Platte Valley Community Center, or the North Platte Valley Medical Center in Saratoga, Wyoming. Dan was a loving, caring person; he will be greatly missed. A celebration of life will be held at a future date.
