Danny Madsen

I am so sorry to hear this. I only had one golf lesson, but very much enjoyed it. He had lots of great stories. My condolences to his family.

I worked for DM3 (he loved to call all us young bucks in the Pro Shop "laddie") at Staley Farms. Man, those were fun times. He was great to work for. Taught us all how important it was to keep the shop tidy & clean and how to get the creases in the shirts just right. You could tell just how much being around all the military folks had influenced him. He was such a cool dude and a proper gentleman. He will be missed!

Remembering a round of golf in KC (day of crash of the Challenger) with Danny, Ron Foster and Kirk Koehler. Foster was Dan's partner v. Kirk and I and, although a 20 plus handicap, was close to par after 4 holes, when Kirk pointed out his golf ball was not round, but misshapen. Foster replaced the ball and proceeded to double or triple bogey nearly all the remaining holes. Notwithstanding his losses, Danny congratulated Foster on his game! He was a classy gentleman.
