Daniel J. McGlynn

Dan was such a joy to work with at The New York Times. I was blessed to have known him and I’d like to offer my deepest sympathy to his family and friends.

Sol and I were so sad to hear of Dan’s passing, our dear friend and former co-worker. Though I did not work directly with Dan, I’ve always held great esteem for his devotion to his staff, his lead position in Corporate Records and The New York Times Company. Sol and Dan worked very closely together and as a result, over the years, I was fortunate to spend more time with Dan and his wonderful wife, Paula. It was so easy to see how devoted they were to each other.

A highlight of each year was the holiday get-together that Sol and I spent with Dan and Paula at Ruth Chris Steak House. Those get-togethers always brought out Dan’s great sense of humor and appreciation for spending time with friends. As each year moved into another, there were many occasions to enjoy the company of Dan and Paula, and those memories will brighten our sadness from his passing.

Paula, throughout the years, I have treasured your friendship. It is my hope and prayer that you, and all of Dan’s family and friends, will find comfort in the wonderful spirit that Dan leaves behind. May you keep memories of the good times, the laughter, the smile, the hugs and comfort that was in full view during Dan’s time with us. In doing so, may the best memories of Dan’s spirit live on in your hearts and minds.

A special thanks to Rory ( nephew) for trying to keep us in the loop on how Dan and Paula were doing.

With Love,
Brenda

Never forget when you took me to aGIANTS GAME for my 65 bday!
Great memories! Great Guy! We will miss you! RIP dear cousin!

I have many wonderful memories working with Dan at The New York Times. I will always remember him
as having a sunny temperament and a wonderful gift of making friends. Rest in peace Dan.

Dan was one of the earliest people I met working at NYT Corporate. Not only was he cheerful and welcoming, but extraordinarily helpful while having fun doing so. Danny’s keen observations saved a number of us much time and moved us along the learning curve so smoothly, we didn’t even realize he was doing so.
A beautiful temperament and a real gentleman to remember. May his memory be for a blessing.

I have nothing but happy memories of working with Big Dan! We spent many a late night putting together Board books and Dan would regale us with stories from the “old” days. He made working hard a lot of fun! I learned so much from Dan, not only about the history of The New York Times but also about being a good human being. He was great guy who cared deeply about his family and colleagues. He will forever be remembered and loved. Rest in peace, Big Dan xo

To the McGlynn Family, I was saddened to hear of Mr. McGlynn’s passing. Though we only met a few times, he always showed me great respect, kindness and appreciation. It was truly a pleasure to have worked with him. Wishing you peace and comfort in the days ahead.

Warm regards,

Fabiana Dunne and family.

I worked with Dan during my formative years at The New York Times Company. He was a wonderful colleague and friend, from whom I learned so much about the work, the Company and life, always with his wonderful sense of humor and kindness. He kept a filled candy jar in his office, to easily welcome others in. That and his bag of Beanie Babies made him a huge favorite with my daughter and other children, when they came to visit our 43rd Street offices. I also admired his strong devotion to Paula and his family, to whom I send my deepest condolences. Rest in peace, Dan.

Big Dan had a big heart and was so much fun to work with. Each year at Christmas he hosted all the Legal Dept admins to a long lunch at Carmines; I had been at NYT only one week when I joined my first lunch. Thank you, d friend.
