Dawn
In life, Daniel was a loving parent to Dawn and was devastated to learn of her death. However, it can be assumed that his view of her daughter may have changed as he tried to exterminate her during The Pilot Issue. However, he did show mercy in the end.

Della Peterson
Daniel and Della were married and he was deeply in love with his wife. He was ecstatic when she moved from Wisconsin to Maryland to live with him. After the tragic deaths of both of his children, Della's subsequent death wrecked him emotionally, even causing him to retire from his teaching career, which he cherished. It can be assumed that they are still together in death, as Della called him 'honey' in The Pilot Issue. Daniel was born in 1940. His early life is mostly unknown, but in his adulthood he fell in love with a woman named Della, who attended the same university, and married her soon after she moved from Wisconsin to his home state, Maryland. Together, they had a daughter, Dawn. However, Dawn committed suicide in her early adulthood, which devastated him. When Della died a few short years after the fact due to BHS (Broken Heart Syndrome), he was left emotionally broken and he retired from his teaching career, which he loved greatly.
