Dan’s life passion was music. He found endless joy and healing through playing the acoustic, electric, and pedal-steel guitars. His dedication to the art was only surpassed by his love for his band family. Along with Donna and O’Dell Pope, and Jimmy McCauley, The Caroline Southern Charm Band recorded over 1000 songs, played many shows across NC, and delighted and warmed the hearts of all those who listened.
