In an interview, Laura McDaniels said about her husband, “This line of work can swallow you up. But when he’s with the kids, he can stop what he’s doing and talk about the school dance. That wasn’t easy for him. He’s worked on it and still is working on it. I think he has changed.”
Involved in Charity Work
