A devout man, Mr. Mariani lived his faith every day.While living in Malden, he was a daily communicant at St. Mary's Church in Revere, and later at Immaculate Conception Church in Everett for many years.

Danny loved to eat.He was always eating endless bowls of pasta, and never said "no" to his favorite sweets, including ice cream, cake, custard, and strawberry shortcake.He enjoyed eating more than cooking, but was willing to help as long as it involved a big meal at the end.A good natured man, Danny will be lovingly remembered for always being happy and enjoying a good laugh.
