Nicholas Savario Danza

He was born in Chicago, IL to Savario (Sam) and Estelle Danza (Georgoulakis).

He was the beloved husband and best friend to his wife, Barbara (née Banna).

Loving brother to his sister, Germaine (Don Laing) and brother, Tory (Sherron) Danza, they fondly remember him as a wonderful brother and uncle.

He was a proud and loving father to his sons and daughters, Matthew (Shareece), Virgle Newell (Julie), John Williams (Matilde), Kevin Williams, Jessica Williams (Jarid Craig), Mary Heater (David) and Martha Williams (Jeremy Bolen).

His grandchildren, Ciandra, Darion, Colten, Daniel, Syre, Satya, Esme, Eliza, Elisha, Autumn, Avery, Lake and Arsene remember him as a fun-loving and playful Grandpa and Papa.

He is lovingly remembered by his nieces and nephews, Denise, Dione, Kim, Chris, Cary, Danny and Steven as the uncle who took them to rock concerts and drove them around in fast, new cars.

His passion for cars was legendary. He went to the Chicago Auto Show every year. He would go new car shopping with his friends. His favorites were Corvettes, Mustangs and of course, Aston Martins.

He was an avid drummer. He would descend to his basement lair and play along with the music of his favorite rock bands. He also loved competitive shooting and participated in competition matches.

Nick owned his own successful computer consultant business. Many of his clients became his friends.

Nick enjoyed Chicago sports teams especially his beloved Bears, Cubs and Blackhawks. He cheered loudly with the rest of Chicago when the Cubs won the World Series.

Nick loved watching James Bond movies. He knew more Bond trivia than anyone else we knew.

Nick was full of life and loved a good martini, good food and good times with his wife, his family and his friends.
