Daniel Vincent Samela, 66, of Tappan, NY passed away peacefully in his sleep on Tuesday, January 16, 2018 at Nyack Hospital. Born in Bronx, NY to Dominick and Annabelle Samela, he is preceded in death by his parents and sister, Gail Pacifico. He is survived by his sister, Stacey Samela, daughter, Anna Samela and her fianc\u00e9, Mark, son, Nick Samela and his wife, Nicole, grandson, Jacob Samela and many other aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews. <\/span><\/p>\n

Daniel never met a stranger. He was the life of the party; everyone knew when \u201cDanny\u201d walked in. He was a loving man who wore his heart on his sleeve and would do anything for anyone. He was very proud of his two children and was blessed enough to meet his first grandson, Jacob, and cried as he held him in his arms for the first time. Dan was diagnosed with cancer in early 2017 and made it a point to make extra trips to Ohio to visit his kids and grandson, spending as much time as he could with them. <\/span><\/p>\n

Danny was an amazing story teller and it was always a pleasure to hear him talk about \u201cback in the day\u201d when he would sing and play drums in his band \u201cThe Special Occasions\u201d. He was always singing to every song that came on\u2026and if he didn\u2019t know the words he would just make up his own. He will be dearly missed by his family and friends. <\/span><\/p>\n

The family will receive friends on Saturday, January 20, 2018 at Pizzi Funeral Home in Northvale, NJ from 11:30am-1:30pm. Service will follow at St. Catherine Church at 2:00pm. In lieu of flowers family requests donations be made in Daniel\u2019s memory to the American Cancer Society at donate3.cancer.org.<\/span><\/p>\n
