The Last Years are happier ones for our Danish drummer. A tough-love judge issues an ultimatum, and Uffe meets its challenge in the desert canyons of Whitewater. He becomes a medic and caregiver for others going through detox and rehab, and weekly Sober Jam Sessions help him keep steady through recovery. His journey back to his family, the love of a quartet of friends, and his legacy for the next generations, bring our true story to its upbeat finale.
Thats so interesting. We are relatives by blood. I could find you on myheritage, Valerie. Maybe we can get in touch. Is there a mail adress I can contact you? We got roots in Austria, did you know? Uffes paternal grandma Marie was born in Vienna. I have some pictures of the family.
PS to my earlier comment: The photos and the music greatly enriched the tale, bringing your father's talent and humanity further into focus. It was great to look and listen as well as to read!
Loved learning about your Dad and listening to his music brings me to a very different time. What a life! Being an artist, as you know, is never easy, but is bound to be very eventful. You did a wonderful job in researching and writing this great story.❤️
What an impressive undertaking this project is! Your compassion and love for your father creates a warm through line that honors him and reveals his goodness despite the turbulence he created and all of you endured. It's a great blessing that he died in the embrace of his family. --I love the Elvis car and hope it came to a happy end, too. Kudos on a tale so well told! ~Lisa
WOW! Thanks so much Valarie. And the music will always be there.
Thank you, Richard. You’re so right!
Nice Job Valarie and Lise. I really enjoyed reading this, you should be very proud of your Dad. Nice tribute.
Thank you, Steve. That means a lot.
