He treated me like a "father away from home", intoduced me to a girl at Ocean View Park ballroom (Norfolk) who became my late wife of 63 years! I owe my college education and many subsequent wonderful happenings to his kindness.After my WW2 service as weather officer at a bomber base in England (w/Jimmy Stewart), I played a few times for Rosemary Clooney who lauded Dan for his part in launching her career! I cherish the many memories I have of Dan, "Fats" Gority and all the great guys in his bands. --john Mitch,

Sounds like your dad was the "main man" in that band. I'll bet he had some great solos. My Uncle would have met your dad in 1938 when he joined. I attached an anectdote that Ray wrote about driving in a hearse with Dan Gregory. Funny story. Larry Thanks Ken. Sounds like your dad was the “main man” in that band.
