 Most of these tributes are from life long friends and acquaintances, but rest assured the butterfly effect is a serious phenomena. Danny and I worked together for a very short time in a very unlikely place (a cabinet shop). For both of us it was probably akin to a leaf blowing in the wind; but our paths crossed and I am richer for the experience. I was going through an extremely difficult period in my life, and not embracing much - but Danny was hard to ignore. I am grieved beyond measure, but be assured Danny impacted more than a "local" crowd, and his presence is left in many hearts. Citrus County FL.

Unfortunately I have not seen Danny in decades but he is not a person you can easily forget. He was bigger than life and a funny and great guy to be around .... just like the rest of the DiPasquale family . We grew up only 1 block away and used to play pick up football or other sports at Taunton school, directly across the street from their house. In fact if you you arrived to the school by yourself , with one knock on the DiPasquale’s door , you would have enough people for a game within minutes . Danny passed far too early and I only wish we had crossed paths more recently. He will be missed by his family and friends and I know that God has a special place in heaven for him! My condolences to the entire DiPasquale family !

I would encounter Dan while I was walking my dogs or taking a walk myself. I will miss him a lot. He always lifted my spirits up with a funny story or joke. I think many of the people in our neighborhood will miss him for the same reason. God rest his soul. My condolences to all of his family.

Uncle Danny was an amazing uncle who has left us to soon. No one had a bigger heart (or nicer hair) then him! I am going to miss his amazing hugs and hearing him tell his jokes and stories. Heaven gained a great new angel. Love and miss you Uncle Danny.

Dan was a true and great friend, brutally honest and funny as can be. We shared many laughs and good times together. Danny was always there for you whenever you called, he had a heart of gold, always willing to lend a hand. My heart is hurting and will be for some time, because it’s hard to lose someone as special as Danny. I’ll always love and miss him forever. RIP brother love, Naran

Big Danny - the name said it all . And if you knew him you loved him. Losing someone we all called brother way too young is not only difficult to comprehend, it’s almost impossible to say how I’m sure everyone feels about him in a couple sentences so I will stop here and say you are loved and missed - there will never be another like you Danny

BIG Dan you were Best Friends with my husband Danny Pcolar. You grew up together in New Jersey. My Danny passed away November 4, 2019....8 months ago from cancer he was 61.
Still learning how to live without him. It hurts. I know God has him in His arms and one day I will see him. You kept InTouch with me and I felt comfort. Sharing your memories of being with Danny made me happy. I have a voice mail message from you on my phone. I will always keep it. It's like you are still here. And Yes you are still here... in everyone that knew you! I will miss you terribly! A Big Heart full of Love and I'm Thankful to know you! Eternity with God in Heaven! Until then; I'll be seeing you. I Love you BIG DAN!
