Daniel Foote was born on February 10,1971 to Lorriane Foote and Al Yabor at Kings County Hospital in Brooklyn, New York. Daniel unexpectedly departed this world on April 1, 2021.
Daniel was a sweet and curious child. He had a lovable smile and passion for his favorite singer Chaka Khan. Daniel attended New York City public school throughout his childhood. During his teenage years Daniel played sports and worked for summer youth programs. Daniel was accepted and attended Iona college in New Rochelle where he received his Bachelor's degree in Communications.
Daniel was a naturally gifted soul who acquired information easily. He worked in the information technology field starting at fortune 500 company, Sprint for many years and technical support for the NY City Department of Education system. Later working as a technical consultant for his expertise for many private sector companies. Though Daniel's true passion, if you knew him, was food. Following his passion, Daniel decided to move to Atlanta, Georgia where he briefly became a chef and manager for the legendary Waffle House franchise. Though his time there was short, he would find great pleasure in whipping up creative dishes for you to enjoy. Daniel began his final passion project in photography and his weekly comedy club special “Four comedians and a Bouncer” podcast. Daniel started an LLC and was on the verge of opening up his online store. Daniel was in the beginning talks of a new podcast with a few of his good friends in his final weeks of life. If you knew Daniel you would know that he would give you the shirt off his back because that was who his soul was. Daniel has touched many people throughout his life and has left an indelible mark on all.
Daniel met his life partner, Michaela Cornwall, while providing personal security in the nightlife arena. With Daniel's quick wit and Michaela's easy going soul they quickly fell in love bonding over dinners and each other's company. They settled into life in the birthplace of Hip-Hop, the Bronx, New York. Together they made a life with Michaela’s beautiful bonus family which includes her amazing six children and bonus grandchildren and great grands. Daniel’s dream and goal was to move the family away from the Bronx to a place that was peaceful and where the family could spread out on some land.
Daniel leaves behind his siblings Cherise Wade, Bernice Foote and nieces Sybil Wright, Amber Petrie, nephew Charles Hyman, grand nieces and grand nephew and cousin Earl Smalls and a host of relatives.

Dan, you were a student of mine at Iona, when you lived in Bosch Hall and I was the Director of Res. Life. I just heard of your passing today and came here to leave a message and to connect to your memory. I remember running into you on the subway in NYC a number of years after Iona and we shared a great hug. You were a good guy, Dan. May you rest in peace. Peace to your family.

Growing up in Brooklyn, Daniel AKA Daz, was one of my closest friends. We were like family.
I will never forget the times we all hung out in the office. All the parties there. Just thinking about it tears me up.
He will be missed greatly.
