Born on May 19, 1986 in Norwalk, CT, he was the son of Thomas Chase and Laurie Hagendoorn Melisi. As a young boy, Dan loved to swim in the backyard pool and go to work with his Dad.
Daniel graduated from J M Wright Technical High School in Stamford, CT, in 2004, where he studied Technical Support and Services. As an adult, he held a variety of positions, primarily in inventory and delivery. In his free time, Dan loved to personalize his cars.
Dan is survived by both of his parents, his older brother Steven, and a number of other loving relatives. His family and friends will always remember his dazzling smile. A memorial gathering will be held in his honor at Spadaccino and Gallagher’s Funeral Home on Saturday, August 3 from 11:00 to 1:00. At that time, everyone will have an opportunity to share their fondest memories of Daniel.
In lieu of flowers, donations to the American Vitiligo Research Foundation would be greatly appreciated. (avrf.org)
