Personal
Dan Lyttle (CFP) is the President of Halton Hills Financial Inc.
In 1986 Dan loaded up his Ford EXP and moved to Toronto to start a career in what he figured would be 2 or 3 years of job experience before moving back home to London. Well, one thing led to another and before long Dan had joined a softball team, and met a new group of friends which included his future wife Jordene.
Over 25 years later, Dan and Jordene are the proud parents to 2 children, Lauren and Justin. He never made it back to London, but did manage to move west to Oakville where his family has settled for the past 20 years. Dan has been an active volunteer in Minor Hockey as a coach in both the house league and rep program since 2005. He still manages to stay active by playing organized hockey with his friends every Sunday evening in the winter. Although the level of play has dropped off as each year has gone by, the camaraderie is just as great. In the summer Dan is an avid golfer and the family enjoys spending some quality time together at the family cottage in Grand Bend Ontario.
