Missing Dan hughes

susankate — Wed, 26 Jul 2023 22:15:03 GMT

It’s sad to realize that Dan Hughes won’t be here to help with our Christmas shopping and decorating this year. Holiday shopping without him is sad this year. I always enjoyed when he and his Bethlehem lights buddies would regale us with nostalgic conversation and humor. He is missed

I miss Dan also. I had watched him since he and Pat were on together in the mornings. He also did Nascar shows with Dale Earnhardt Sr. What a pleasure to see them together!

Dan was my favorite hoasts. He always explained how home type devices worked. I miss him too. I think QVC made a bad choice to let him go.

He was my favorite male host. And agree, he and Pat were a good team.

🎄 Dan was QVC's own Mr. Christmas.

You could hear the magic and excitement in his voice whenever he talked about decorating his farm for Christmas. It was his time of the year to shine. Proud husband, father, grandfather, son, and brother (and pet owner) the perfect blend of Norman Rockwell and Mr. Rogers.

Yes Dan, we'd love to be your neighbor.

QVC without Dan is like Christmas without a tree.

I follow Dan on FB & he's a joy. There is no one like him.

I watch the QVC TV presentations very rarely, but when I caught them, Dan was a favorite. Surprised that QVC would let go a consummate professional, and one who had a warm authenticity. Dan was informative, and a friendly, often funny presence. Unforced and natural. Those qualities seem to be hard to come by in sales personnel, clearly, so QVC's actions are baffling.

I heard Carolyn's voice on a video when I was looking at some Denim & Co things yesterday. It must have been a long time ago when the tops were presented. Made me both happy and sad to hear her voice. I miss both of them. Was such a bad decision to lose Dan and Carolyn.

I saw a video for the black glass HomeWorx candles and Dan was presenting them. I miss him and Carolyn too! I hope they KNOW that WE miss them and I hope that they are happy and doing well! I know how it is to go from being in the middle of it all to going home (without choice) to a less demanding environment. It is quite the adjustment. So I hope they truly feel the appreciation and love we have for them🙂💖

Dan Hughes didn't die. There's no reason to miss him. He's enjoying his life, he has moved on to his next chapter. If you like him, follow him on Facebook. His posts are amazing. Thought provoking, fun, glimpses into his life. He has finished writing his book and we got to give opinions on the proposed book cover. Some posters gave him some great advice and was thankful. It's funny. I didn't pay much attention to him on QVC. But now I truly enjoy his Facebook conversations.

The posts about Dan and Carolyn are nice.

No, they didn’t die, but people that enjoyed them are mourning the loss, and that is ok.

@crystaltree Someone doesn’t have to DIE before they are outwardly appreciated! I always wondered why people WAIT until someone dies in order to SAY nice things about that person! I make it a priority to tell people how great they are (if they are) I don’t wait. Why wait! So no, no one died…but why should they have to die in order for people to verbally express what they mean to them🤔
And I’m happy to hear that Dan is doing great and many things! 😃

"mourning the loss"??? He's a tv sakes person - a total stranger.

Gee, will people be " mourning the loss " of Pat Sajak when he leaves next year??

Yes, I think so. Unfortunately they didn't get to mourn Alex Trebek until after his death since he worked up to the end. It will be different with Pat - hopefully.

@Pandalady ......

🤗 Amazing that you posted that pic. Everytime I see that classic red truck, I'm always reminded of Dan.

Yes, was a big loss to Qvc,in what they did to Dan, and of course it is nice to express our missing him.
