Being British junior waterski champion for 4 years!* * *Sir Elton John "Spending time with Dana was very special.  She was magical, and helped me overcome my shyness. She knew my story before I did! All the memories I have of her are fond ones. So much laughter and kindness which helped me enormously. Those brilliant times will never be forgotten."Sir Tim Rice "Dana Gillespie is larger and more fun than life, whether on land or sea, stage or skis.
