PAST SUPPORTERS

It is not possible to list and to thank each individual which has been important in this journey. It goes without saying that even an encouraging word or understanding is appreciated.

Of course, number one on the list is my Lord, Jesus Christ, who delivers me through every challenge.

Danny and his wife Jackie with Danny's Mom who is over 90 years old

Danny's Father who played with Xavier Cugat, Machito’s Orchestra, and many other well known musicians.
