Daniel Joseph Pelak (age 71)
April 26, 2024

Loving father of Casandra (Chris) Apperson, Daniel (Natalie), Austin (Holly), Jessie, and Krystal Skicko.  Grandfather of Josh, Nathan, Matthew, Brennen, Zoe, Zachary, Malory, and Jackson.  Daniel is survived by his siblings Joann, John (Gilda) Kathy (Philip) Reggio-Pelak, Joseph, and James (Michelle) and many nieces and nephews.

Daniel is proceeded in death by his ex-wife Renee and his siblings; Thomas, Carol (Jim) Nowak, Barbara Jean, Edward (Leona), Lorraine, Christine (Pete) Silisavage, Michael (Ingrid), and Philip (Pammie).

Daniel was raised by John and Angeline as one of 14 children, in true Pelak fashion; a family man who would help anyone any way he can.  He was a hard worker who did things his own way.  He was wise beyond his years.  His door was always open to anyone who needed a hand.  He helped his brother “Turtle”  out at the tire shop and at Inky & Turtles.  There was nothing that he enjoyed more than spending time with his grandchildren.
