Obituary for Daniel A. Piano

Daniel Anthony Piano, 83, of West Simsbury, CT passed away on March 31, 2022 with his loving family at his side. Daniel was born the youngest of seven children in West New York, New Jersey on September 28,1938. From a young age he exhibited curiosity, integrity, and determination in everything that he believed was important. These traits afforded him many successes in his life. He was known for his million dollar smile and an infectious laugh that could fill your heart. Dan was an accomplished pianist, orator and student. He attended New York University and earned a Masters Degree in Physical Education and was a true student of life.

In Surf City, New Jersey, in the summer of 1961, Dan met the love of his life and attracted her attention with a whistle and a confident “Hello!” After five years of courting and 48,000 miles driving to visit Pat, they were married in the summer of ‘66.

Dan and Pat were blessed with five children and they are all unique in their gifts. Their successes can be attributed to the dedication he and Pat gave to family life. His family brought him great pride and he would consider his wife and children to be his greatest accomplishment. His family was his masterpiece. He was a man who was content.

Dan enjoyed a successful career in medical sales. He had tenacity and fought for all that he believed in, most importantly his family. He openly shared his values of love, faith, hard work and integrity. His love for family was unwavering and gave him pride and motivation to be the best person he could be every day of his life.

He leaves behind his wife Patricia of 55 years, daughter Pamela, (William) Bliss of Castile NY, Julia (Adam) Warren of North Granby, CT, Christiane Piano of Como, Italy.
