Daniel E. Fernandes

Danny, as he is known to his loved ones and friends, passed away after a long battle with addiction, depression, and anxiety. He battled it very hard, but he was finally taken by God on April 15th, to his final resting place, where he is in no more turmoil and pain. 

Danny was a very loyal, caring son and brother, and also a loving uncle, nephew, cousin and friend to many. He was extremely smart, quick witted, analytical, hilariously funny, and very lovable. Danny was loved by everyone he met. His laugh and smile were infectious, and was known for his great sense of humor. 

Danny was good at everything he tried, a very talented person. He was good at just about every sport he played, and he could play musical instruments like the piano and guitar by just “figuring it out”. Also, he enjoyed drawing, writing, debating, and loved comedy. Danny was also very skilled at snowboarding, skiing, and especially skateboarding, which was his athletic passion.  

His loves were many. Music was a huge love of his. Danny loved old-school music from the 60s and 70s (Zep, Beatles, Floyd, Greatful Dead, in particular), blues, and many other types . He would love listening to music, talking about music, and studying it. Danny also loved sports especially at a young age, and then his love grew for skateboarding. He loved all animals especially dogs, as his heart would melt when seeing a puppy. Danny also loved reading, and most recently was reading the Bible. His number one love though, was spending time with his family and extended family. The memories he brought his family and friends will never be forgotten and cherished forever. RIP ❤️

Surviving are his beloved parents, Michael and Maryann Fernandes; loving sisters, Kristina Adams (Tom Adams) and Alison Fernandes (Kyle Readel); grandmother, Joan Langenberger; Uncles and Aunts, Steve and Carolyn Fernandes, Donna and John McGuire, Ted Langenberger and Greg Weber; nephew, Lucas Adams and cousins, Gregory, Ryan, John, Kevin, Matthew, Kellie and Amie. He is pre-deceased by his grandparents, Daniel and Rose Fernandes and Edward Langenberger and his aunt, Patty Weber.
