In memory of Michael Danoy
Donation protected
On October 3rd, our community lost a shining star, Michael Danoy. Michael and Charlene have been an important part of our extended family at Seattle Athletic Club Northgate. Michael taught Yoga and Pilates for us for years, Char continues to be an integral part of our Pilates instructor team.
Char is adjusting bit by bit and day by day. Understandably some days are better than others. Her devastation is beyond words. They were one spirit, life partners and soulmates for 31 years.
She writes:
'I know so many of the Pilates and Yoga folks knew Michael well. They cared about him and I would love to have him remembered as the light that he was, shining so beautifully in this mad world. He was a sweet, intelligent, creative, humble guy, but also very idealistic and independent-minded, often to the extent that he was reluctant to ask for help. He took care of others more than himself. I have learned from him the merit of this selflessness and will love him to the end of the world for it. Through this I have also learned that we as human beings need to let others in, to let people help us, and to reach out for help when things are too hard.'
As a community, we take care of the ones we love and want to assist Char through this transition. We are raising funds to help cover the financial burden of these next difficult months ahead.
Thank you for considering.
With much love,
Team Seattle Athletic Club
