Dan was born April 14, 1928, in Toledo, Ohio, to Burton and Irma Jamieson. He attended Scott High School in Toledo.

Dan left Princeton after our sophomore year and graduated from the University of Toledo in 1951 with a bachelor’s degree in business administration.

In 1950 he and Marian Wieting were married. Dan was president of Jamiesons’ Inc. a retail music store in Toledo, and was co-founder with his brother Dick of Jamiesons’ HiFi, today Jamiesons’ Audio Video, in 1954. He loved music, from Beethoven to the Beatles, and was an avid music collector.

After four years of retirement, he became the librarian of the Leland Township Library, a job he held for 18 years.

Dan died March 1, 2017, at the Munson Hospice House in Traverse City, Mich. He was predeceased by Marian, son Todd, and brothers Burton, George, David, and Richard. Dan is survived by children Daniel Jr. ’74, David, Andrew, Marian, and Burton; 14 grandchildren including Katherine Jamieson ’00 and Molly Eberhardt ’08; and nine great-grandchildren.
