Daniel H."Boone" Volk, age 79, of Baraboo, passed away unexpectedly surrounded by the love of his family on Tuesday, Aug. 23, 2022 in Madison. Daniel "Boone" was born April 22, 1943 to parents, Cyril and Bernadine (Rhuland) Volk. Dan was employed by Edward Kramer and Sons, Local 139 until his retirement.
