Dana Miquelle, age 73, passed away at home, October 20, 2024, after a brief illness.

Born in Boston, Massachusetts, son of the late Claude H. ’42 and Jean (Bryer) Miquelle, he grew up in Stoneham, MA enjoying summers on Cape Cod. Dana graduated from Williston Academy (Easthampton, MA) in 1969, then from Drew University (Madison, NJ) in 1973 with a degree in Religious Studies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dana married Margaret Moore in 1973 and moved to Cape Cod. There Dana began his custom home building business, often working closely with his father Architect Claude Miquelle. Despite no formal training, with his aptitude for learning and problem solving he was able to develop a unique niche in the Custom home building boom on the lower Cape and across Massachusetts. In 1977 Dana’s first daughter Jessica was born, followed by his second daughter Lisa in 1980.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dana returned to school to pursue Psychology Counseling, graduating from Lesley College with his Masters in 1996. With degree in hand, Dana then moved to Bozeman, Montana to begin his counseling career. He furthered his education with a Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist degree in 2011 and eventually transitioned his practice to Livingston, Montana, while he moved to Wilsall, Montana where he declared he would “make his last stand.” He continued to provide impactful care to his patients until his retirement this past August.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dana was an avid skier, hiker, and outdoorsman who loved to garden and brought artistry and sensitivity to all aspects of his life. He loved music and taught himself to play guitar in later life, collecting many records and guitars over his lifetime. Dana was an environmentalist who loved the natural world and enjoyed the solitude of wild places, but also enjoyed nothing better than to share the beauty of nature with all those he loved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dana is survived by his children Jessica Miquelle Romero (Eduardo) and Lisa Miquelle ’98; his grandchildren Eva and Sonia Romero, Dylan Hemsworth, and Nora Meservey; and his siblings Debra Miquelle Prudden (Peter ’66) and Dale Miquelle ’72 (Marina).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The family will hold a private Celebration of Life in Dana’s honor. In lieu of flowers or gifts for the family, please make a donation to your favorite National Park or environmental charity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
