I was dating a friend of Danny’s for quite a few years. He told me to bring my car to Danny because I couldn’t find a good mechanic in PA. I once had my car towed 105 miles  to Mavis for Danny to work on because he knew my car and always did such a great job. My car worked better than ever after Danny worked on it.  I was sad for me when he retired,  but happy for him. I was even sadder when I got the shocking news that Danny had passed. I’m keeping your whole family in my thoughts and prayers. May the Lord give you peace that passes all understanding. 🙏💕

Extremely sorry for your loss, I will never forget my first day with STS and meeting Danny as well as having the pleasure of working with him. Am greatly going to miss our weekly competition on who's yard looked better. He was a great friend and an amazing father to his children.

Phil from the Liquor Locker always called Danny and Gary - Mutt and Jeff when they walked into the bar. 

Danny was a wonderful friend; I will miss his political views and observations on life. I will miss the stories that made us laugh until we cried. I will miss sneaking pastries to him as we sat having coffee and Di saying no more. I will miss sitting on the beach watching Danny look for his keys that were always in his pocket. I will truly miss our friend who was taken too soon.

Dan was the first friend I made when we opened Phil's in 1977. He and Ray came in for a drink and it has been 48 years of a great friendship. 
I don't think there was a club we missed between north and south jersey. Then there was the occasional NYC clubs or the trips to Ft, Lauderdale, alway just out to have fun. Never with a worry about tomorrow. Driving home as the school buses were picking up kids and we had to be at work in 2 hours. We talked this summer on the beach saying "how did we do it?"
We still laughed at the good times with his cousin Michael and my brother Tommy. Each one of us will forever have a Danny story to tell. 
After Danny retired, we spoke almost every day. Sometimes still slipping in a "do you remember when"? I miss those phone calls already. 
The beach is going to be a little quiet too, Patti will have to talk to me
now! Danny will be missed. I will forever cherish our friendship.
Danny and "Di" are family to us, they will be in our hearts forever.
Gary Forgione

Diane and Mike I am so sorry for your loss. Dan was not only a great coworker but also a friend. His gift to repair anything was a blessing, but more importantly his ability to lend an ear and help those in need was second to none. I have fond memories and will always cherish the memories I have of Dan. RIP Dan, you will be missed.

We are very sorry for your loss.
I have great memories of Danny.  He, my brother, and I would hit nightclubs all over New Jersey.  After Phil’s closed at night, we’d rush off and have a great time. Those were some of the best memories of my youth. Danny will truly be missed.

So sorry for your loss.  I/we will miss Danny’s FB posts and his money saving tips and his great bbq burgers. We only knew Danny for a short time and are so saddened by his recent passing. Prayers for the Scapati family. Condolences from Donna & Marty Cannon.

I’ve known Dan for 4 years but feels like longer. Great guy, great neighbor.
Miss him walking around and working on everyone’s house,  even in his pajama pants.
The neighborhood and I will miss him
🙏🏻 for Diane

Diane I'm so sorry for your loss. You, your children, your grandchildren have my deepest sympathy.  I am gonna miss bantering with Danny over politics on Facebook. I have fond memories of our times down the shore with Dave and Kathie.  Danny portrayed this hard exterior at times but I know he was a marshmellow deep inside as I viewed all his pictures of fun times with you, his children and his grandchildren. This breaks my heart and I'm so sorry this happened. Continued prayers for you and your family. 🙏🙏🙏♥️

Mr S was a great guy. I remember countless times him taking me and Mike to the skatepark, helping with my car, and giving good advise. He won't be forgotten.

A great friend, neighbor and facebook buddy. You will be missed so much. An honor to know you

Seems so very strange not seeing you outside Danny.  You were always outside.  You always had a big 
"hello Jo" for me.   I miss you Danny.
We all miss you.   
Don't worry Danny....you know we'll all be there for Diane.
Rest in peace my friend....
Until we meet again ..... on that big front porch in Heaven.❤️🌹❤️

I can’t believe I’m writing this Danny was my cousin when we were kids we did everything together and I mean everything he was like a brother to me we were inseparable. As we got older we drifted for some reason I never understood why we didn’t keep in contact  we would see each other unfortunately once a while . I know life changes but not always for the better now I wish I made more time to call him to talk to him . I never told him that I did love him that he was like a Brother to me . Yesterday  Gary Forgione and me were talking about the old times we were like the three stooges back in the day and we got to laugh at a very sad time . I will cherish my memories of him his mom dad and sister who are all together now  . Dianne Michael Lisa and the whole family there are no words to make this better but I will say this Danny will be missed by many people anyone who knew him knows what I’m talking about .
