Daniel Eli "Stro" Strohecker, 54, of Mount Morris, IL, formerly of Lanark, IL, passed away with his family by his side on March 17th, 2020 at FHN Hospital in Freeport, IL after recently being diagnosed with mesothelioma. He was born August 26, 1965, in Savanna, IL to Richard and Mae Strohecker. He worked many jobs including machine operator at Quad Graphics in Mount Morris, IL for 23 years and most recently as a machinist for Danfoss Power Solutions in Freeport, IL. On February 22, 2020, Dan married the love of his life, Sara Martin. He graduated from Highland Community College in 2012 and from Lanark High School (Home of the Fighting Beavers) in 1983.

Daniel loved antiques, the Chicago Cubs, woodworking, and anything mechanical. He loved spending time with his family and enjoyed traveling and exploring with them. He had been a proud member of the Graphics Communications Teamsters Local 65B in which he held many offices including president, and the Mount Morris Moose Club.

Dan was a friend to all he met. He was patient, loving, generous, and kind.
