Dear Julie and Family
My son Peter went to CP with Danny. We still can’t believe he is not with us.
I had not gone to the Strip since he left us.
Like everyone you miss his posters everywhere. I finally went to the Strip, rolled down the car window and played his CD, as loud as I could.
I had some pictures of you and Danny at CP and Peter passed them on to Danny.
God Bless

My guy and I saw your husband in Vegas about a month b4 he died. We are from Chicago and thought his performance was amazing. But what was more amazing is all the good he has done in his life for others.
It was a great loss, his death, yet he lives in the hearts of people who did not know him personnally. He lives on! God Bless you, his wife, and his precious children.
I just ‘ran-off’ several copies of your recipes.
I’m sending copies to son Mike (Danny’s room-mate in Victoria with the ‘Mussels’) and daughter Cheryl, (stayed at Mike and Danny’s apartment in Victoria when they were playing ball out of town).
God Bless you Julie and thanks for the recipes and memories.

I am so greatful for the time that I got to work with Danny and to get to know him. It is still wierd not seeing him on billboards, taxi tops, and on a marque. I was cleaning up my garage the other day and was going through a box of old things and found a bowling shirt that he got for an event and as he walked by the box office he threw it at me and laughed and kept walking. He is truly missed.
I just like to pay my full respect to all the family, friends, and fans. To me Danny was amazing. He had lots of tallents. No one can out beat him. Danny seems like a great dad, husband, brother and ect. Danny will never be forgotten. To me he was and still is a ledgendary icon. We all loved him like he was a part of our family. May God continue to bless you all.
Everyone should come out and support Danny’s fund raising charity events. I went to both (did not play golf) and met some of the Gans family and had a blast. Plus my donation went directly to the charity foundations. It is fun and a great way to spend a day or evening out! You will not be disappointed.
Almost one year later after his passing and it still makes me sick! This was one of the most gifted and talented people ever to grace the stage in Las Vegas. He seemed like a wonderful and genuine man that was true to himself and his family. It still bothers me that he is no longer physically with us. God Bless Danny Gans and his family! You are missed!
never has an person touched my life like danny did and as a year since his death approaches all can say is my thoughts go out to his family
Dear Julie and children: I was so saddened to hear of Danny’s passing last year and my heart goes out to you. Without a doubt…Danny Gans was the best of Las Vegas. When my husband and I visit there, we will truly miss not being able to see his fantastic show. We eagerly look forward to getting his dvd. Not only was he a fine entertainer, it is evident that he was a fine human being with a wonderful family. Julie, by the way, I am planning on preparing your delicious recipes this weekend. I remember as a child, my own mother used to make that oatmeal cake too. Please share more recipes with us. God bless you all and thank you for keeing up this special website. Rest In Peace Danny Gans.
is there a DVD of his live performances??
How do I get it?

I’ll be in Vegas in June. There isn’t any
entertainment if Danny isn’t there. I’ll eat and go to bed
“To Danny’s Family: I just wanted to take this opportunity to let each ~and~ every one of them know that our love ~and~ prayers have continued to be with them. I grew up with Danny in the Torrance/South Bay area. I remember when he was just learning how to play the ‘trumpet’ amongst others. He will continue to be the number one ENTERTAINER in our book. He was phenomenal!” With Much Love Always, Geri-Lynn (Rubin) Wayt <3
