1965年，丹尼在乔治·好施的指导下开始在美国好施公司担任记账员，他很快就熟悉了美国好施公司的方方面面，从在仓库里做零工，到柜台上协助销售。通过这段经历，丹尼爱上了美国好施公司，更加自觉积极努力工作，并晋升成为办公室经理。丹尼发自内心热爱美国好施公司的工作，坚定不移为公司员工和客户奉献自己的时间和精力，同时不断发现问题，不断改善工作效率。丹尼先生在美国好施集团的职业生涯中，始终致力于改善美国好施集团的企业运营和流程，持续继承发扬光大美国好施集团的核心价值观。

Danny started working at Hirsch as a bookkeeper in 1965 under the direction of Joe Hirsch. He quickly saw all sides of Hirsch, from completing odd jobs around the warehouse to assisting with sales at the counter. Through this experience, Danny fell in love with the organization, leading him to rise the ranks to become office manager. What Danny fell in love with at Hirsch was their unwavering dedication to people and service; but where he saw opportunity was improving efficiency. His career became one dedicated to improving operations and processes at Hirsch and continuous improvement remains a core value at Hirsch today.

1979年，在看到丹尼对美国好施公司的精辟见解和奉献精神后，乔治·好施把美国好施公司的管理权交给了丹尼。丹尼接掌美国好施公司的全面工作后，就富有远见卓识地扩大公司业务范围，包括在更多的地区设置分支机构、仓库和店面，提升新的账单和工资薪资管理技术，以及采用计算机系统管理库存产品。丹尼开创的美国好施集团服务第一的企业理念，以及提高工作效率、支持可持续性增长，对美国好施集团的发展壮大起到重要的历史作用。

In 1979, after seeing the vision and dedication that Danny had for Hirsch, Joe Hirsch turned over the reins to Danny. Once Danny took over the business, his vision led to expanding the business including adding more locations, adding new billing and payroll technology, and implementing computer systems to manage inventory. Danny's legacy of Hirsch's service-first approach, while improving the efficiencies to support scalable growth were instrumental in the growth of Hirsch.

丹尼特别注重美国好施集团的基础建设，并把主要精力重新集中到企业业务的起点：销售。他敏锐的洞察力和创新力使得他坚持了美国好施集团始终如一的承诺：美国好施有。这是一个包含了很多保证的承诺：库存，必须有现货库存，客户需要的产品将在客户需要的时候交付，因此客户将能够成功完成自己的工程项目。

Once he felt confident with the infrastructure he'd brought the business, Danny refocused his energy to where it all started: sales. His insight and knack for innovation lead him to the promise Hirsch lives by to this day: Hirsch Has It. It was a promise that packed a lot of guarantees: that inventory would be in stock, that your product would be delivered when you needed it, and that you'd be able to complete your job and successful.

美国好施集团分公司运营副总裁赤坂次郎，是在美国好施集团工作45年的老员工，他表示：“我很幸运能在1976年10月被丹尼聘用。丹尼教我指导我，让我学会如何对待我们的客户和员工。他还教会了我关于美国好施集团所有业务。丹尼总是对每个人都友善，尊重每个人，和他谈话相处是一种享受。我非常感谢丹尼多年给我的支持，我由衷的认为，如果没有他，我就不会取得现在的成就。谢谢你，丹尼！！你是美国好施集团企业文化的创始人，我们将始终发自内心地怀念你。”

Jiro Akasaka, VP of Branch Operations and 45 Year employee of Hirsch states, "I was lucky enough to be hired by Danny back in October of 1976. Danny taught and mentored me on how we should treat our customers and employees. He also taught me everything about our business. Danny always treated everyone with kindness and respect and made everyone feel good after talking with him. I cannot thank Danny enough for all the support he provided me throughout the years and I can honestly say that I would not have made it without him. Thanks Danny!! You are the father of Hirsch Culture and will be truly missed."

临近1990年，丹尼开始考虑寻找自己的接班人，这位接班人不仅能够继承他所开创的事业，还能够不断推动美国好施集团现代化，不断改善和发展。据说，1991年的一天，丹尼和他的女儿以及她的家人一起参加一个生日聚会，期间与他的女婿比尔·格洛交谈。比尔刚从商学院毕业，发现自己对计算机咨询工作不感兴趣，而且长时间的出差和苛刻的时间表，没能给家人留下太多的时间，比尔希望有所改变。因此，在一场品尝蛋糕和坦诚的谈话中，丹尼和比尔达成了一个协议，该协议在生日聚会的餐巾上签字：比尔将立即加入美国好施集团，成为丹尼的接班人。

As the 1990's approached, Danny began to think about finding a successor who could not only carry on the legacy that they had built, but continually modernize, improve, and grow the company. As legend has it, one day Danny was at a birthday party in 1991 with his daughter and her family, and got to talking with his son-in-law, Bill Glockner. Bill had just graduated from business school and was finding himself frustrated in his computer consulting role. With constant travel and a demanding schedule that didn't leave much time for family, Bill was looking to change things up. So over some cake and candid conversation, Danny and Bill struck up a deal that would become famously inked on a party napkin: Bill would join Hirsch effective immediately as Danny's successor.

丹尼所创建的事业将永远被所有有幸认识他、以及与他一起工作的人所铭记并弘扬光大，人们永远不会忘记他给美国好施集团的巨大贡献，永远不会忘记他对所有与他共事的人的坚定支持。丹尼已经离我们而去，我们收到了大量的缅怀和悼念。如果您想分享您的回忆或哀悼，请发邮件给比尔·格洛，邮箱地址是：teambill@hirsch.com。
