Daniel Richard Woolley, “Dan”, age 25 of Atlanta, passed away peacefully at his home on Sunday, October 14, 2007. Dan was a beloved son, brother and friend. Dan fought a long courageous battle with kidney disease for 15 years. Even though Dan did dialysis daily, he traveled widely including trips to Turkey, Spain, Alaska, Galapagos Islands, Puerto Rico and Mexico. A native of Atlanta he attended the Galloway School and then went on to attend the University of Richmond, where he was the student manager for the men’s basketball team for four years and resident advisor. He was the recipient for the Most Significant Contributor Award for the University of Richmond in 2003. He graduated with a degree in accounting with academic honors in 2005. After graduation he moved back to Atlanta and took a job with Deloitte and Touche accounting firm. Dan loved watching all sports games, spending time with his friends, and going to the movies. He is survived by his mother and father, Charlsie and Herb Woolley, his brother and sister-in-law, Charles and Tish Woolley and his sister Mary Ann Woolley. He is survived by his maternal grandmother, Elsie M. Farmer and his paternal grandmother Mary F. Woolley. Dan leaves behind many friends around the world. He will forever be remembered for his generosity, courage, loyalty and his heart of gold. He was the bravest person his family and friends knew and would not accept any pity on his behalf. Even though Dan’s physical stature was only 5’0”, everyone including 6’0” tall basketball players looked up to him with respect and admiration. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in memory of Dan to the Galloway School of Atlanta, Georgia 404-252-8389, for the establishment of a special fund in his memory.
