How Not To Kill A Sugar Daddy

Duncan R. Danforth was born in 1905 in Texas, the son of a country doctor who started the Danforth Hospital when the town had about 300 residents. Duncan joined the practice in 1935 at the age of thirty, and in 1937 the family opened the Danforth Clinic, which grew into a 120-bed hospital with a nursing school, rehabilitation and outpatient surgery. The family had bought oil land in Texas in 1905 and held it for seventy-five years before selling. Danforth retired and moved to a 3,000-acre ranch between Climax Springs and Greenview in Camden County, Missouri. He was seventy-five in 1980, twice widowed, with three children, Frank, Jeanette Barbe and Lynn Coates, and a fortune of several million dollars that included a coin collection valued at $175,000. By his son's account he was also making up for lost time: young women came from Kansas City for weeks at a time, he gave them money, cars, handguns and expensive pets, paid one woman $1,000 a week and Diane the Hungarian $1,500 a week, and carried marijuana, pills and a .45 in his black doctor's bag. Local and county officers had an active investigation into his drug dealing.
