Daniel Joseph "Danny" DiCICCO obituary, St Petersburg, FL

Daniel DiCICCO Obituary

DiCICCO, Daniel Joseph "Danny" died April 14, 2013, at Northside Hospital where he received exceptional and compassionate care. Danny was born on Oct. 25, 1983, in St Petersburg to parents Paul & Cheryl DiCicco. Danny attended Westgate Elementary, Tyrone Middle, and Dixie Hollins High School, graduating in 2002. His high school career was not without incident. In 2001, Danny was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma. A diagnosis such as cancer would devastate most individuals - not Danny. Danny took this news in stride and made his best effort to keep family, friends, and football at the center of his life. Despite being weakened from chemotherapy and radiation, Danny managed to continue playing football. In 2002, Danny accomplished a remarkable milestone; he beat cancer. Danny continued his education at the University of South Florida and completed a bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice in 2006. Shortly after graduating from USF, he attended the police academy at Manatee Technical Institute. After completion, Danny was hired by the Pinellas County Sheriff's office as a Deputy Sheriff. One of Danny's most prized accomplishments was testing for and being extended membership to the Special Weapons & Tactics Team (SWAT). Danny served on the SWAT team for a period of two years. He was working towards his master's degree in Public Administration at Nova Southeastern University. Danny is survived by his parents, Paul & Cheryl DiCicco; brother, Paul DiCicco (Nick Cardinale); grandmother, Crystal Coester; aunts, Mary Finch, Rita Hollinger (George), Eileen Jaeger; uncles, Thomas DiCicco (Theresa) Wayne Coester (Joan) Stephen Coester, Les Bailey (Donna, predeceased); and cousins, David Greim, Jennifer Bailey, Fred Jaeger, Kim Fithin, Lauren Coester, Sarah Schilke, Samantha Williams, Thomas Andriko, Jennifer Owen, Brianna, Ricky, & Talia Jaeger, and Kelsey Fithin. Visitation will be held Sunday, April 21st, from 2-4 pm & 6-8 pm at Memorial Park Funeral Home, 5750 49th Street North, St. Petersburg, FL 34209. Funeral services will be on Monday, April 22nd, at 1 pm at First Baptist Church of St. Petersburg, 1900 Gandy Boulevard North, St. Petersburg, FL 33702. In lieu of flowers, please help a child with cancer. You may make donations to All Children's Hospital - Oncology, 500 7th Ave South, 6th Floor, St. Petersburg, FL 33701 or to Children's Dream Fund, 1 Progress Plaza South, Suite 821, St. Petersburg, FL 33701.

4/12/13 Some much needed prayers for one of your fine young deputies, Daniel DiCicco who is in the hospital unexpectedly, in ICU.
4/13/13 Daniel has no quit in him. Please pray to give him continued strength to win this fight. He's an outstanding young man whom a lot of people care about. Thank you in advance.
4/14 An outstanding young man has gone to be with the Lord early this morning. Deputy Dan DiCicco it was an honor to serve with you. I guess the Lord needed more heroes in heaven. Rest in Peace, Brother, you will be dearly missed.

Dan was a part of many families besides the one he was born into- his school family, scout family, sport family and his sheriff office family. He formed caring relationships in each of these families and Monday they all came together to honor the inspirational man he was. Words cannot express what your support has meant to us as we struggle with his loss. Our family is so grateful for the outpouring of love, the sharing of memories, the hugs and even the tears. We are trying to be as brave as he was when faced with adversity. We were honored to be his family. As we move forward, I think his squad said it best with their ribbon- WWDD- What Would Dan Do? Take a piece of Dan's heart with you and pass it on- a big squeeze....a smile...a kindness..take life's challenges bravely...do not complain about the mountains...move them...take the time to make someone feel special...That will keep his light shining.

To one of the greatest men I knew. I miss you and you will be missed by each person you touched. However, I know on earth you accomplished more than what most people do in a lifetime. You have touched so many lives by just being you with no motive but kindness. I am very blessed to have had an amazing time with you and our friends. You have a job to do in heaven now, there is no doubt you are an angel. Words cannot describe how great you are! You left a legacy behind. I wish I would have been as blessed as others who have known you longer. However, I feel blessed to have known you for the past 5 months. I feel very blessed I was introduced to you. I know we kept saying we would to to Mazzaro's and we both always had school or papers due or work. Now I wish I would have taken the day off, or maybe taken a break from studying. Just in case, I feel your strength. We all wish you were here. FB 4/24/13

Your loss leaves an empty spot in our lives. RIP my friend. FB

in 29 years you accomplished so much, you beat a disease that takes most lives and you protected many lives as a deputy. I'm so blessed to have been in your life. I love and miss you more than anything in this world. You promised me you'd always be here for me, always protect me and always comfort me. I need the strength to get through this life without you, please Danny..give me the strength. FB 4/19

Everyone who knew Danny is devastated by his passing. Please do not ask God why He took him so soon- give Him tanks for the 29 years we had with him. Do not blame the chemo or radiation - that gave him 11 more years to live his dream as a deputy sheriff and SWAT operator. Instead spend your energy sharing smile,s caring about others and making those around you feel special. That would truly honor the fine man that Danny was! FB 4/16

Danny, I can't begin to explain how much you meant to me. You never once brought a negative moment to my life and did nothing but motivate me to be a better man. I will never forget what you did for me in helping get me hired at the S.O. You always had the right answer or the right advice when I needed it, and had the greatest way of helping me whenever I needed it. I will never forget our crazy gym sessions, or every Thursday when I'd come over to watch Its Always Sunny and the League, or texting you about what I did at the academy each day and how I was doing. I will always cherish the Lightning game you took me to days before you passes...That was you, always giving and treating me like your own little brother. I'll never forget just hanging out with you and Everett and the shenanigans we'd get in...I'll never forget you and will live for you and use your life and our friendship to push me everyday and get me through and finish this thing...I love you brother.

RIP Danny, my boy. It was a blessing to have met you and had a chance ot get to know you in high school. You truly were an inspiration to many of us. Despite all your hardships, you always had a smile and a kind word or a joke to share. Your positivity radiated to all those around you and you have touched many people without even knowing it. I'm happy I had the privilege of knowing such a great person. Condolences to your family. I wish you all peace of mind and strength in such a trying time. RIP BRO you'll never be forgotten.

I truly looked up to you and valued your advice, even though you said we give each other the best advice in the world, we just never follow it. LOL. You were a leader and more importantly a great friend who always had my back and I know that won't change. The past few months we lived like rock stars and no one can take those memories from me. You have my word that I'll watch over your family as I know you'd watch over mine. I love you Bro and one day the "Febreeze Brothers" will get a fresh start!!! RIP Brother!!! FB 4/15

No matter who he came in contact with, he had a major impact on that perrson's life and I can say the same for me. I am ever so grateful that God gave me the chance to meet Danny in 9th grade.

Danny, I will never forget what you did for me that night I ran into you downtown after not seeing each other for 10 years.I will never forget the talk we had out on your balcony that night when you casually threw it out there that you beat cancer. I made you scream it from the balcony because I didn't think you gave yourself enough credit. You inspired and amazed me that night. You continued to inspire me as I began my career as a cop. I never showed you enough appreciation for that. I hope you can read facebook in heaven and know it now. I will seriously miss you man!

I know there are a ton of people that are going to miss you. I'm glad you wrote on one of my comments a week or so back. I hadn't had the pleasure of talking with you for quite some time. I should have gotten together with you and hung out, but we grow old, we do different ways. Who was to know? Love yoa man. From elementary school, to middle school, through Boy Scouts on over to high school. You were always a solid friend to everyone who came into your life. You couldn't have been any more awesome.

So he put his arms around you and whispered come with me.

Dan, I understand that when God calls you home it's a blessing. But it doesn't mean I won't hurt because you are gone. You were one of the most morally grounded people I have ever met. You will forever be missed by so many people. Love you brother. Watch over all of us after you and God help your family through this pain. RIP Dan. FB 4/14

I didn't keep up with Danny much after he moved on from Boy Scout Troop 334 where we were both Scouts, but he left an impression on me even in the few years I knew him. He left us too soon, and my best wishes go out to the DiCicco family and those who knew and loved Danny for the strong young man he was.

Danny,
From the day I met you in Italy at only 19 yrs old, I fell madly in love and knew you were the only one. They all called us crazy when, just a few months later, I transferred schools and moved over 1,000 miles away to be with you. It was the best decision I ever made. You were my rock, my north star. I felt like I could accomplish anything with you by my side. Although we will never have the chance to have a family and grow old together, like we'd always planned, I'm grateful for the 8 years I got to spend with you. You are, and always will be the love of my life. I miss you more with each passing day. I will carry you in my heart until we can be together again. Forever and ever babe.
To Cheryl and Paul, thank you for raising him to be the man that he was. He was truly one of a kind. My happiest memories are the times I spent with Danny and the DiCicco family and I will cherish them always.
Love always,
Gina Peraino

Dan
We will always remember that big smile you had when you walked into the room. You lit it up. Will also miss your teasing. You were so cute. We know you are at peace now watching over your family. You will never be forgotten.
Love, Aunt Rita & Uncle George

Danny, I miss you so much. I know that you are in a better place and that you are being taken care of by my mom and our other family members, but it is hard knowing that I'm not going to have my cousin picking on me anymore or that I'm not going to hear you call me " Schmennifer". I will miss all those great big suffocating hugs and your smiles. You always had my back and I love you dearly!!! Love you always!!!

P.s. give my mom a hug for me!!

Hey Dan, it's Les. I've seen how much of a real man you've become. Listening to everyone tell stories about you did not surprise me. I could see it all along!! The little times we've spent together will be kept between us because everyone has there own. We can all smile because we all know they broke the mold when you were born. You are one of a kind, I just want to say thank you for the times we had with you. You have a special place in my heart!! Love always Uncle Les
