Dearest Danny:
I haven't been on this site for a couple of years. I was amazed at the people who have written and still remember you. You have left such an impression on so many of them as you have on our family.
I still miss you very much dear brother. You were my best friend. The last 3 years I have lived another nightmare and I swear I have felt your presence almost every day giving me the strength to keep on going. Thank you Dan for helping me in spirit. I know you are always with me.
Please say hi to Papa for me. I know you two are looking down on us. I know you are together. Rest in peace my beautiful brother and Father. I cannot wait until we are all together again.
On a lighter note, we were blessed with the most beautiful niece this year. SOPHIA is the most beautiful baby born to Frank and Desirae. I know you are looking over her too! I know you sent us our angel because she came a day before your birthday! I will make sure she knows who her Uncle Danny and Pop Pop Paul!
We love you and miss you every day of our lives! REST IN PEACE!

Danny,
As another anniversary fast approaches I still cant speak of what happened to you without tears in my eyes. Your life was cut way to short. You have a beautiful new niece now who you are missing out on... You missed out on so much. I am sure you are in a better place and that you are right there beside us all. Just wanted to let you know you are not forgotten my dear cousin. Love you!!
Love, Nancy

Danny,
Here it is the 10th year that has gone by since you were taken too soon from this earth and from people who love and care about you very much. I know that you and I knew each other through the relationship I had with your cousin Sal, but during those 5 years the memories I have will always be a part of me. Seeing everyone get together for birthdays and holidays or when you and sister where stuck down in Brooklyn because the car broke down...I love you Danny and you are truly missed. My prayers are with your family during their time of need and you by dear cousin will always remain in my heart. Love you, Gina

Hi Danny,
I often wonder how I can miss someone I never knew. Being married to your brother Frank and being a part of your wonderful family has been a source of great joy for me. I miss and will always miss what could have been. I will miss you sharing the joy of your brother and I having our first baby, I will miss seeing your mom and dad truly happy and smiling alot more, I will miss seeing the relationship between you and your brother, i will miss seeing your sister Angie truly happy, I will miss seeing you and Mark together being not only as brothers but friends, I will miss seeing you play with your beautiful niece and nephews. And I will miss seeing you, not only as a caring and loving family man, but as a husband and father and the brother in law I will never have. Just know that you are missed just as much today as you were 8 years ago. The pain never gets easier for your family and I will regret everyday for the rest of my life that you were not there in person August 22nd, when I married the love of my life, your brother Frank, but I find peace in knowing that you were there in spirit and in every butterfly that landed on my bouquet that day.
I love and miss you

Dear Danny,
I dont know where to begin but as always I will start with I miss you! Somehow your stealth mode LOL was always welcome because you not being there meant to a lot of us YOU WERE THERE especially when we needed you!
Your dad is still with us because of you and your sister.... Franks big day is upon us and the stress and sadness combined with the joy and happiness has created quite a conflict within our hearts....
On AUGUST 22nd I will so proudly stand at that alter along side your baby brother and fill your shoes.... Occasionally I will glance at the pew of USHERS and know that is where I would be along side your godson Vincent and Daniel if you were here.... I have remained and always will be a big brother to Frank and as always will be there for him and Deserae.... I thought of you at his batchelor party and the night we had at mine... LOL I know you were there with us and laughing just as hard..
We ALL miss and LOVE you Danny.. Please continue with the signs for your sister I have tried so hard but she just still hurts so bad without you. Your "SIGNS" do help her so keep it up and I will SEE YOU AUGUST 22nd. You know what I asked for so SHOW ME!!
Love,
Your Brother n Law

Dearest Danny,
Wanted to wish you a Happy 42nd Birthday in Heaven. I hope you liked your flowers, balloons and birthday announcement in the SI Advance. Sorry for the fuss, I know you hated any kind of fuss. As always you were remembered with a heavy heart.
I wanted to thank you for giving me the strength to take care of daddy and mommy. I know it was you that helped me take daddy to the city every day and I know it is you who is keeping daddy alive for a little while longer for Frank's wedding. I know you will be there to celebrate and we will be taking many pictures so please make it obvious it is you in the pic. You always know what to do.
I'm seeing many butterflies again, I know it is you. Thank you for helping me cope with everything. It is not easy especially since you have left us.
We love and miss you so much each and every day.
Keep sending us the signs and rest in peace until we are all together again.
All my love,
Your sister, Angie

Dear Danny,
As the seventh anniversary of your death approaches we all remember and pray for you. It still feels like yesterday, but yet so much time has passed. As always I pray for your soul that some how their is comfort where you are and that you and my dad are still talking about cars together. I know you are around us Danny. I feel you as I do my dad, but at this time please be there for your sister the most! Angie is still having such a difficult time (as we all are) in dealing with you not being here, and only because of the love she has for you! BE HER GUIDE DANNY! I have asked you in the past to do so even a dream, and you have, so please let her know you are here and with her. The children still speak of you and rememeber you their "UNCLE DANNY"!
As always REST IN PEACE!
Love,
Mark (brother n law)

Dearest Danny:
Another year, another birthday here on earth without you. Today you will be remembered again, you would have been 41. It is not getting easier for us at all. Living without you is very hard for all of us.
Mommy and I saw the butterfly you sent us the other day when we left you flowers and balloons at Angel's Circle. I took it as a thank you. Your welcome, dear brother.
Rest in peace until we see you again.
We love and miss you.
Happy 41st birthday in heaven Dan.
Love you,
Angie

Danny, I just found this online and was compelled to write something. I know that I came into your brothers life again after that horrible day but I feel like I know so much about you. Your family loves and misses you everyday and I can see Frank strive to be alot like you. Your sister, brother and Mark take such good care of your parents and I know you would be proud. They are an amazing family and I am so proud to become part of it next year, although I already feel like I am. I know Frank would have you be standing next to him as his best man next August at our wedding but just know that Mark will be there and has been a great friend and brother to him. Please continue to watch over your family, especially your mom and dad, you are and will always be missed and loved very much.
Love, Desirae

Dear Danny,
Today WILL be a special day not for us but for your brother Frank. It is his engagement dinner and soon he will marry a very beautiful and nice girl Deserae. They seem very happy together and as usual your sister and I will be there for them if they should need us just as YOU would have. Its funny in a way Dan you and I had a very UNIQUE relationship when you were here, and now since you have been gone I feel closer to you!!! I know you are around and how I know is still between you and I!! Wink, Wink! Keep it up Danny and watch over your sister. The kids still speak of you, miss you, love you and REMEMBER!! This is also a day to remember for me and again YOU KNOW THAT! Please say hello to MY DAD and tell him HAPPY ANNIVERSARY IN HEAVEN and that I MISS and LOVE HIM!!!
Love,

Dear Danny:
Happy 40th Birthday in Heaven. If you were still here what a party we would have thrown you, just like we did for your 30th! Instead, we all had a somber day thinking of you of what could have been. You were too young to die. We love and miss you so. I ate a big sushi dinner just for you, I hope you were able to taste it. All our love.
Your sister,

Dear Danny:
Vincent's Communion Day was hard for all of us. You were suppose to be right there beside him being that you were his Godfather. I asked you to send me a butterfly that day and you did. Thank you for sending me the sign. I felt you around us all day, but the butterfly was an extra confirmation of your presence. We got a picture of it.
I love you and I miss you dearly. I hope you liked the long stemmed white roses we gave Vincent from you on his special day. He knows you are always there for him. Remember, that was your promise to Vin at his baptism. You will never be forgotten.
Love your sister,
Ange

Dear Danny:
Merry Christmas in Heaven. This is your sixth Christmas in heaven and we so miss you. Not a day goes by that we don't talk about you. Thank you for coming through in October through John Edwards. That was awesome. You called my name out. There were over 4,000 people there, how did you do that one? But the message was for mommy. A message only you and she knew about the week before you left us. We love you so much. Thank you for always letting us know that you are with us in spirit. Always in our hearts.
Love your sister, Angie

Dear Dan:
I cannot believe it is five years without you on this earth. Please give us strength to live life here on earth without you. It isn't getting any easier. You are missed terribly every day. You have been sending me a butterfly every day since 9/11. Maybe you wanted me to write you. I don't know. Maybe it is just your way of telling me you are around. Thank you for the sign. I have to believe it is you.
We love and miss you Dan!

Dear Danny,
FIVE YEARS have gone so quickly I feel like life is spinning fast foward. I relive that horrible day evry day of my life and to know that I was not able to save you hurts real deep inside. Not Angie nor my partners can understand what I feel but I know you can. Angie hurts and I do my best to keep her focused for I know that is what you would want. I know as life goes on for us you see everything and smile down upon us. We carry on for the children and because like you, we do not know when our day will come to be welcomed "HOME". So until then we live each day and remember you always. I know you are with me now as I type you this letter because my shoulder is so cold, the way It felt when my dad visited me. I have had my "moment" with my dad it is now Angie's turn as I pray to you for a visit on Oct 14th. You know where we will be and I have asked you for a specific "VALADATION" to be given to your sister so that she may rest a little easier knowing YOU ARE around us always. Rest in peace brother.
Love Mark (Brother-n-Law)

I can’t believe it’s been five years - I still miss Danny so. He loved his family. When he came to visit me in Tennessee in Sept 2000, we joked about him smuggling some of his momma’s good cooking in his suitcase for me to try. He brought a video of his family to share with me. He rented a blue Mustang convertible which we drove at night with the top down and the heater on.
He had a strong work ethic & how I wish he hadn’t gone back to work that Tuesday after his vacation. He called me Monday morning while he was on vacation but I was so tired from my trip to San Antonio, I didn’t answer the phone. I’ll always, always regret that.
But even if I had talked to him & encouraged him to take another day, I know he would have gone to work anyway. He was always on me to get a job (I was in school). I had brought some spicy pistachios to send to Danny because I knew he loved pistachios.
I have pictures that I want to get to his family. He was a good friend and very generous. He is missed.

Dear Danny:
I can't believe it is 4 years since I last spoke to you or have seen your beautiful face. You are so deeply missed. Life will never be the same without you.
This year it was such an honor for Frank and I to read your name at the memorial downtown. I know you were with us. Rest in peace dear brother, until we are all together again in heaven.
Love you always, Angie

Hey there cousin,
Today is 3 years since you were taken away from us. I still think of you everyday. You are with me everywhere I go. You are so missed. Our family has recently gone through another tragedy with the loss of our little cousin Tino in another act of senseless violence. I know he is there with you now, and you are with my mom who was taken away from us so long ago at an age close to yours. It all just seems so unfair. I truly believe that you are all our guardian angels and that you all give us the strenght to go on. Please know that you all will never be forgotten!! Miss you all so much!! Our family will never be the same without you. Until we meet again, you will forever be in my heart. Love and miss you.
Your cousin,
Nancy

Dear Danny:
It is now 2 1/2 years that you have left us. Sometimes it feels like a lifetime that you are gone and some days it feels like minutes that we last spoke on the phone on 9/11.
I know you know how much we love and miss you. Not a minute passes that we don't think or talk about you.
I hope you are happy at home with God. I know one day we will all be together again. Until that day every day feels like an eternity.
Until we are together again, we love and miss you dear brother.
Life has drastically changed for all of us. We will never all be happy until we are all reunited as a family again.
I love and miss you.
Your sister, Angie.

You are truly missed. Give my mom a birthday hug for me and tell her I miss her so much too. Cant wait to see you guys someday, but until then I will keep you alive through my memories. Love you both!!!
Love ya and miss ya,

Danny,
You were the kind of guy that would light up everyones life with seeing your smile every morning. NOt a day goes by when i dont think of you. I miss the little chats you would have with me over coffee. The words of comfort you would give to me with the problems i have had. If you were still here this very day there would be so many things i would like to say to you. You are an extraordinary man. Your my guardian angel up above watching over me. God bless your family. All my love... will always be missed and forver stuck in my heart

Dan,
I can't believe that a year is approaching from when we last saw you. Actually today is a year to the day that I saw you last.. I wish I would have known this because maybe I could have talked to a little bit longer or I dont know or even given you a hug. The time that you have been away from us has been really hard for the family. Everyone misses you. When we all go to your moms, your pictures are all over and they are so comforting. I just wanted to tell you that you were a great person and you are greatly missed. Until we meet again cousin Danny, I miss you greatly!!!!
Love ya,

Dear Danny: It is almost 8 months that I last spoke to you. We all miss you so much. We still look at the door every time it opens waiting for you to just walk in and ask mommy, "what are we eating tonight?"
I just wanted to thank you for calling me when you needed me the most on September 11th. I know you were afraid but you still kept your calm that morning. I am sorry I couldn't save you. You have always been there for me and that morning there was nothing I could do for you. I hope you didn't suffer and that God took you in his arms to bring you home with the rest of our family in heaven.
I get through every day just knowing that it is another day behind me and that we will be together again. I can't wait to see you again.
I love you and miss you. You are forever in my heart.

Danny,
It has been almost 7 months since you were taken from us and it hasn't gotten any easier. There is not a day that goes by that I do not think of you. I just came back from your mom's house today and the pain that she feels just kills me. She misses you so much. We all do. I have your picture present with me everywhere.. I feel better just knowing that you are there watching over us. I know that you are being well taken care of because you are with my mother. Please take care of each other and remember that you will never be forgotten. Until we meet again cousin, I want you to know that you will remain in my heart forever. We all love you and miss you.

Dear the Pesce Family,
You may not remember me but my name is Ron Galizia. I was a classmate with Frank at wagner college and at the same time your old paper boy. I heard about Danny and was so shocked and upset. About 9 months ago I joined the NYPD and during this whole time I kept my eyes and ears open on any information Icould find about Danny. Iam truly sorry for your loss.

To The Pesce Family,
I want to express my deepest sympathy for all of you. I am a high school friend of Danny's brother, Joe.
I remember Danny when I would come over to your house, and he was about 4 years younger than Joe and I. He was a kind and fun kid, a little shy, always smiling. I'm sure he made you all very proud.
I do not know how to get in touch with Joe now, but I hope this note finds you folks. (I just learned about Danny today, nearly six months later.)
You are all in my heart and in my prayers.
God bless,

We are very sorry for your loss of Danny. Our hearts cry with you.
America Cries
We see your sorrow-
and our hearts cry....
We can not erase your pain
but you do not have to face the anguish alone-for we-
-the American people-
are beside you.
We so desperately want to have the touch that brings you comfort,
the strength that gives you courage,
and the words to lighten your spirits.
And when we are left speechless
may the silence of our nation weave love into your hearts
to ease your sorrow.
May you find healing through our nation's strength as we-
-the American people-
face this difficult time together. Our hearts are with you. Teresa Jahn
