Daniel was born on June 14, 1940. He was the son of Daniel J. and Mary (Boyce) Hart of Chelmsford, MA.

He received a bachelor’s degree from Boston College and proudly served his country with the United States Airforce. Following an honorable discharge, Daniel became a firefighter and enjoyed a long and successful career as Fire Chief with the towns of Millinocket and Sanford, ME.
