Daneille in 1997:
Dani's love of music has followed her through the years since graduating. She received a bachelors degree in music from the Hart School of Music, and a Master of Arts in Music from Yale Divinity School. She then served as Director of Music for the New York Annual Conference of the United Methodist Church and was Director of Music for two congregations. Dani currently works as a music and history teacher at the Fellowship Christian Church and School, where she also has the job of choir and symphony director. Spending time with her family, husband David and daughter Kassandra (Kasey) is a number one priority.

Favorite memory: Chorus with Mrs. Griffith and band with "Sir".


Danielle in 2007: Since the last update, my husband Dave and I have added two more children. Kasey is now 10 1/2 and will be starting 6th grade in August. Joshua is 4 and will be going to preschool in September. Nathalie is 2 1/2 and comes to work with me. I am the music director at The Congregational Church of Windsor Locks which is affiliated with The Evangelical Free Church of America. It is a great church at which to work and worship and I have been fortunate to be able to bring all my children with me when they were too young to attend school. We have a strong focus on discipling people into a relationship with Jesus Christ and then on to serving the community and this carries over into the music ministry as well. I have choirs for the cherubs (Pre-K and K), the children (1st -5th), youth (6th - 12th), adults, and a praise team which has both instrumentalists and vocalists. Dave still works for the fire department at The University of Connecticut. Kasey is a competitive Irish step dancer and at the moment is ranked 10th in New England for her age group. I won't be able to attend the reunion as Kasey and I will be at Broome Community College on the 18th for a feis (Irish step dance competition) and I can't make the trip two weeks in a row. Any thoughts on changing the reunion date to accomodate!?! All our best to everyone and anytime anyone wants to head over to Tolland, CT or visit UCONN, let us know.
