With deepest sympathy to Dan's family from The Wahconah Regional High School Class of 1968.

Thinking of Danny today.
Hope you're all doing well.
Miss him a lot. He touched a lot of lives.

It’s crazy your gone, I knew when you told me it was time that time was too close I hate that I didn’t make it by again before you left. But it’s like I hear you in every classic, the music, the cars, just the other day I seen a beautiful 67 impala looked a little rusty but it sounded beautiful and for a second I thought you were in it. Maybe you were an if so yo seen me wave hello to you. You’ll never be forgotten and always deeply loved and missed. 

Uncle Danny,
I am very upset and sorry you had to go. You are and always will be one of my greatest mentors and heros to me and someone I strived to be just like. You are in my mind and heart. I love you and Aunt Barb so much!  Please tell her when you see her I still miss her too. I also had fun with the cat and truck projects and the fun driving on the salt flats, doing machinery, taking care of the birds, the landscaping,  stone and block work we did, But the most is the laughter and fun working on the 1975 green Chevy! When we were done fixing it or touching it up, Aunt Barb would smile with happiness always made my day!  Love you so much XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO Buddy     

Working with danny for ten years were the best ten years of my career  we had alot of good times and laughs both in and out of work. He was truly  one of the greatest guys  my deepest condolences  to his family

Love you guys and so glad you all were there for him ---it meant a lot to him!

Some of my earliest memories are riding in the truck with my uncle Danny.  Sending love to all the family and friends!  

Back in 1975, when he met my mother, he took me and my sister in as if his own.  He gave us a life full of happy memories, all the way to his end.  I am privileged to get to know him on a different level in his later years.  He has proven to be one hell of a man, father, grandpa, and great grandpa.  Giving his knowledge and life events for all to learn from.  I miss him so very much, but know he is in a better place, in less pain.  He fought long and hard the last 11 years of his life.  Finally, he was done, he deserves peace....love you poppie!!!

I have so many memories of Danny, but this is the one I'll share.  I'm Danny's oldest sister .  Since I was the oldest of the 5 of us, lots of things fell in my responsibility box!  I remember the day I took Dan to Pittsfield, to the registry to get his First driver's license.  Just a few days over 16 I think!!  (And we all know Danny's superb driving ability. He's been driving tractors, the hay truck, the old junk car in the pasture---- whatever he got on since 9 or?)   My Dad, who went with him on several "runs" to NYC, told me several times that 
" Danny could place that tractor trailer right where he wanted it" and Dad was very impressed.  So we motored on to Pittsfield. Danny was a little cocky and the inspector was having a bad hair day and "the rest of the story is Dan didn't get his license that day--- a sad day indeed.  Upset is a very mild word for the reaction that day.  However, the Marcouxs are not quitter's and Danny was one of the first in the line for his license the next morning at the Northampton registry!!  The rest is history.  Dan drove many miles both commercially and for his own pleasure.  
Dan's quick wit,  sense of humor and ready laugh made him fun to be around!  And his family was very important to him!   
Go in peace Dan.  We love you, but it is time for you to rest!  You have left your huge footprint here and will not be forgotten!!love you! Show em how it's done!! ❤️  Carol

I remembered this story recently and was able to share it with Uncle Danny and we laughed about it - good times. 

I’m guessing 50 years ago now, when Danny was first driving trucks / hauling loads, once in a while, he would stop by his sisters (my mom) to use the phone and get the next load lined up.  If it was going to work out, he’d also grab my brother Scot and take him for a ride. I don’t remember exactly, but I’m thinking he did that 2 or 3 times and it hadn’t yet come my turn. 

Seeing that I was getting my feelings hurt, the next time mom said - Danny you have to take Lisa this time. So he did. 

I remember he put me up in the truck with him and he drove a load of potatoes from Alberts Farm to Stateline where they make potato chips. Looking back and thinking about it - I was about 6 or 7, which made Danny 20 or 21.  Really young. I don’t think he was very comfortable around little girls, but he knew kids in general. While I waited in the cab, he went inside and came out with a clear 15-gallon trash bag full of freshly made potato chips and plunked it on the seat between us. Awkwardness gone. Let’s eat! 

He was a good man with a huge heart and I’m going to miss him. Rest easy 


Our sincere condolences to Danny’s family.  So much pain to go through which should have never been.  We will remember him with love and his love of cars!  

Much love and many hugs to all of Danny's family. I am truly sorry for your loss.

Danny is my Uncle. I always remember him laughing and with a smile. While I have not seen him often in the past 12 years, since I moved further away, he has never been far away from my heart. Sending love and light to all! He will be missed!

  Danny was a good friend to me.
I'm proud to have known him and have him allow me to  hang out and help out a little at his home "hot rod " shop.
   Danny was a craftsman and I learned a lot from him.  He was a big tough guy but thoughtful and intelligent. 
    I Loved to hear him talk about the  building up of this town of which he was a big part of.  Seems he knew everybody. 
   A brother Operating Engineer, he made a great life in this town. They don't make 'em like that any more
  Miss you buddy.. 
                                                Rick Ainge.
