I’m sorry I never met Dan’s family, but I’ve known Dan (Danny) since 7th grade. He was always so much fun in Jr. High and High School. I moved way away and sort of lost touch, although my mother would keep me informed as much as she could as long as she could. God Bless you and hold you in his hands til we meet again Rev. 21:3&4

Dan was a great person. He loved his wife, family and friends with his heart.
He was always there to lend a hand and made you feel like you were part of his Italian family. I especially remember the many times he would have a special bowl of ice water for my kids on hot summer days of walking in the Stonemoor neighborhood. He taught Jack the love of ice eating!
What a great loss to our community, what a huge gain for Heaven.!
Love to the Carelo Family.
