Dan Kirchoff, Best Man

John has known Dan since they were in the second grade together at P.S. 214 in their hometown of Flushing, Queens.

Dan is, in no particular order, a Mets fan, a surgeon and an alumnus of both the College of the Holy Cross and Columbia's School of Physicians & Surgeons. In May of 2007, John stood as Dan's best man in Jersey City, and is beside himself that Dan will be beside him when he takes his vows in May.
