Danny Westbrooks, born February 11, 1945, in Piedmont, Alabama, grew up in a military family, moving frequently due to his father’s Army service. After attending JSU for three years, Danny joined the Army, serving as a Communications Officer in Alaska and Vietnam. He was honorably discharged as a Captain after nearly five years. Following his military service, Danny worked for Bell South for 25 years before retiring early in 1998.
In 1973, Danny married Camille, whom he met through a blind date arranged by a friend. Together, they raised two daughters, Deanne, a teacher, and Lori, an office administrator. Danny is also a proud grandfather to two grandchildren, one serving in the Army and the other in high school.
Danny enjoys golfing, fishing, and spending time with friends in the Monark Grove Community, where he participates in cornhole and the Patriotic Club. He’s known for his storytelling and active involvement in his community.
