Danny’s love of history led him to join a military unit of reenactors. For 35 years, he marched, stood guard, reenacted battles, and increased his knowledge of the Revolutionary War. Danny was an encyclopedia of historical events. He was an avid hunter an enjoyed hunting and shooting with his sons and grandsons in his spare time. As a proud pop pop, he loved watching his grandsons play baseball and football.
