Danny Jegle -CBTF Golf
Welcome toThe Danny
You go , we go
The 2008 Danny Jegle Open held on Oct. 6th ,2008         at  the Hempstead Golf and Country Club.  Raised a total of $82,000.00   That is amazing!!  The friends and family of Danny came through again.  10 years we have been doing this TOGETHER...  You go - We go !

The Danny Jegle Golf Outing started out as and idea on a front porch. Danny's mom. Patricia, and Danny's aunts came up with this great day. The idea was to raise money and donate the funds in Danny's name to the Children's Brain Tumor Foundation. Danny's dad, Tim, helped put the idea into action and raised $13,000 .00 in September of 1998. Last year through the help of family and friends, they raised over $80,000.00. All of the money has been donated to the CBTF. The CBTF, a non-profit organization, was founded in 1988 by dedicated parents, physicians and friends. Their mission is to improve the treatment, quality of life and the long term out look for children with brain and spinal cord tumors through research, support, education, and advocacy to families and survivors. The CBTF has awarded nearly $5 million in grants for basic and clinical research related to pediatric brain and spinal cord tumors. Also, over $500,000 has been given out in Quality of Life Grants.It is here that the Golf Committee would like to thank the CBTF for it's continued support as well as Bill Jegle, Radio City Entertainment, Manny Velez, Madison Square Garden, George Kurth, Fitzpatrick Hotel Group, Dominick Antonino, Prebon Yamane USA, Maureen McLaughlin, United Resturant and Tavern Owners of New York, and Tradition Asiel Securities.

As we gather here; today, in our time of sorrow
We question why Danny
Has no tomorrow

Beyond the anger, the hurt, the pain we bear
The joy of his birth will always be there

And when our grieving here is done
He'll be remembered, as his mother's son
In his daddy's heart he'll live on forever
and be his poppy's little proby
So smart so clever

The closeness that grew between those two
Happens once in a lifetime to a chosen few
And to hear him say poppy, that familiar call
Will live on forever, in the hearts of all

I remember one brief hospital stay
Mommy hold my hand, I heard him say
I thought to myself
What a loving way to let her know she comforts his day

Danny we love you
That's your family's voice
Because you're so special
You're now God's choice

Don't be afraid and walk forth without fright
For someday as a family we'll reunite
When once again, on mommy's chest you'll lay your head
Loving words will be spoken and no tears will be shed

So for those of us who remain to mourn
Let's bless the day this child was born
And say these words as he laid to rest
Daniel Patrick Jegle
We love you, but God loves you best

It's time to kiss you goodbye and let you go
Oh Danny Boy,  we love you so
