Daniel LaBellaCpl Daniel James LaBella USMC
January 16, 1987 – January 1, 2008
My brother and I grew up in Coram, NY. Ever since we were little, my older brother, Danny, always wanted to be in the Marines and go to war and have a family. We have three other brothers: Christopher, Jacob, and Patrick. My brother loved to spy on me when I was younger and get me into trouble when I was not doing what I was supposed to do. He loved building model cars. He loved playing in little league. He loved camping and hanging with friends. He loved to write and read. His favorite movies were the Ghostbusters movies and Star Wars Movies. He loved the New York Yankees with a passion.
He was deployed in November 2006 to Iraq. He came home and was not the same. He struggled with drinking and even had one prior suicide attempt before completing suicide January 1, 2008. He left two daughters behind, Londyn and Faith, who miss him terribly. My brother was too stubborn to accept help or want it. But that was how my brother was.
States he called home: New York, Florida, and West Virginia
Resting Place: Locust Valley Cemetery, Locust Valley, Long Island NY
