They were married on May 24, 2014, and had their beautiful son, Danny on August 15, 2019. Danny and Vicky had a perfect love. They adored each other and showed us all what true love is. Their love of coffee and roasting beans sparked them to open Crux Coffee Roasters in 2016. Crux was Danny's passion. His vision was to make high-quality coffee more mainstream, giving customers the opportunity to try different coffees from around the world. Danny accomplished this and built a place where people felt welcome and comfortable. He formed bonds and friendships with many at Crux over the years. Danny was a bright light in this world. He touched the lives of so many people. Being around Danny made you want to be a better person. He was an inspiration to many and will be missed by all.
