Daniel K. Long, Sr.
I am a 4th generation Plano Texan and to this day call Plano my home.
I am married to a wonderful woman that puts up with my Rotary club, district and service work. I have 5 kids, she has 2 kids & 4 step-children, and together we have/had a total of 11 kids, 20 grand-kids & 5 great-grand-kids.
I worked as the Plant Facility Engineer for a large company that built eighteen wheelers, and military ground support equipment. I was their military liaison to the Pentagon as the Transportation Officer, and was a member of the Air Force for over seven years.

I was honored to meet Dr. Jonas Salk at the Salk Institute of Biological Studies in 1994, I taught fermentation technology in two of his classes.
I joined the Global Network for Blood Donations (RAG group GNBD). In Rotary year 2015-2016 I was inducted into the “Fresenius Kabi Donation Hall of Fame” as Mr. February 2016 and their quote was; “Daniel works hard to share the message of the need for blood donors. In doing so, exemplifies the Rotary International motto of “Service Above Self”

The great thing about the light is that there is no darkness. If you walk in the light and always keep your eyes on the light, the darkness will always be behind you.
