"Most of the time, you heard him before you saw him. I don’t use clichéd phrases like this very often, but the concept of Dan Wheldon “lighting up a room” simply couldn’t be more apt. He rarely entered a party without greeting everyone in sight. I was always amazed how many people he knew, how happy they all were to see him and, no matter who it was, how much time he spent with each of them. He remembered all their names and knew the names of their wives, husbands, and kids. He asked about all of them, remembered minute details and engaged each of them in a way that assured them he cared. A lot of fans don’t know what it’s like to have an elite driver look them in the eyes when they’re talking - DW gave out his e-mail address and demanded follow up."
