Danny had many interests in life. He loved golf, racing motorcycles, playing softball with his brothers, watching college football and debating how the season would turn out. In his youth, he not only played football, he showed great potential to play college football until he was badly injured. Although sports seemed to dominate his life, Danny still found time to teach himself to play the guitar, write songs, and make music a vital part of his life. He also had a passion for flat track motorcycle racing, and in the last weeks of his life, wished he could do it one more time. He was an avid Alabama football fan. "Roll Tide"
