In Lessons from My Father, Danny Kolke, a Jazz Musician and Entrepreneur shares valuable life-lessons from his father, a Theologian and Baptist Minister, the Reverend Sir Dr. Daniel A. Kolke. On the surface, their worlds could not have been further apart, but Danny shares how the lessons he learned from his father had been the catalyst to inspire him to follow his passions and pursue his love for music. In this book you may discover the capacity to understand, forgive, to care for others and follow your passion. If you're like Danny, you may even discover fulfillment and an unmatched joy in life. In Danny's Own Words: I am the youngest of three sons, and I am named after my father. He was the most educated man I know, and I dropped out of high school. For years I was afraid that he was disappointed in me for not following in his footsteps, and not even finishing a degree. But my dad was proud of me, and he told me as much, over, and over again. And he specifically shared what he was proud of. Dad was proud of my family, my music, my work. He was proud of his grandchildren, all of them and what they were doing. He was proud of my construction projects. He was proud of my writing, my blog posts. He was proud of my ideas. He was proud of Boxley's, my jazz club. He told me that he felt welcome there, and accepted for who he was by his nonjudgmental jazz friends. If you came to Boxley's, you probably got a hug from my dad. He hugged everyone. Honestly, it embarrassed me when he did it. But he did it anyway. He was proud of my friends, they were his friends too, automatically. He was so interested in what they were doing. My Dad is my biggest hero, and he was my biggest fan. He taught me so much, both in words and deeds, all the way up until his last few days. I thought I should share a few of those lessons with you.
