Dana J. Goranson

• 

Goranson, Dana Jarad age 27, of Minneapolis, formerly of Prince- ton, MN died on Friday, January 24, 2014, due to complications of influenza and diabetes. Dana, son of Barb and Rand Goranson, was born July 2, 1986, in Cambridge, MN. Dana lived a hard and fast life, like the great rock stars of the past. He lived for cars, for nature, and loved to surround himself with fun and enjoyment. In the end, dancing troubles away with those who loved him. Dana had reached the top, defeated all his demons, and took great pride in showing off the person he had become. He will be remembered by his guilty, infectious smile, bright blue eyes, and all his crazy car adventures of the past. Always, in our hearts and memories, his spirit will live on, forever at the cabin. Dana is survived by his parents, Rand and Barb Goranson of Princeton; siblings, Brandon (Lisa) of Oregon and Brittany (fiancé Dan Frye) of Nowthen; grandparents, Kathie Heath and Mary "Karlie" Carlson of Prince- ton and Elton Heath of Moorhead; best friend, Brandon Hansen; and beloved dogs, Obie and Lily; and half-sisters, Leah and Anna; half-brothers, Eric and Al.
