Dear, sweet friend. I can't believe it's been a year. I've thought about you often. I've had moments when I wanted to share something with you only to realize you were no longer with us.

We are so very saddened by Daniela's passing. Years ago when Daniela was still living in Virginia, she was a roommate of my husband (John). Later, I was fortunate enough to meet her and her boys and always looked forward to her posts on Facebook. She was always going to fabulous places, gushing over her boys and living life to the fullest. We will miss you Daniela and I regret never taking you up on your offer to visit you in CT. Our condolences, John and Bridgid Castorina

I am shocked and deeply saddened. Daniela was my first new mom friend in 1999. The biggest heart and an amazing mom, besides being a fantastic chef. You will be missed.

This is so sad and what a shock. I watched SharkTank when she and Ryan present and immediately supported him. I've followed them and often posted to FB posts. I can't believe this. My heart and prayers go out to Ry and his brothers. Ry, I KNOW this is hard for you but you WILL get through it. Don't EVER give up. You are an inspiration to many - even older people like me. Prayers, Jim Davies

My sweet Daniela. I'm sitting here in shock after reading of your passing. You were an amazing friend, generous to a fault, warm, loving and so, so funny. God could you make
me laugh.
I'm heartbroken. I can't believe I'll never see another text or receive another call. That I'll never see or hug you. May you rest peacefully, knowing you were loved and treasured by all who knew you. I love you. Until we meet again.
