I am sorry to read that Danny has passed. He was a great guy. I first met Danny while working at the Kawasaki shop in Jacksonville in the early 70’s. Danny would stop by now and then on his 70 XLH. Harley. Then of course he was racing motor cycles. To a high school kid working at a bike shop back then, Danny was very cool!
After getting in the electrical trade, I later worked with him on several construction projects. Working on these projects I found him to be a knowledgable tradesman and a nice guy. I am so sorry for your loss.
Please know that at least one guy will always wear a smile when he thinks of Danny.
