Daniel Francis Thomas, 58 of Wilmington, died peacefully at home on Monday, Nov. 25.
Born in Wilmington, on Aug. 6, Danny lived most of his life in Wilmington except for a few years in Chadds Ford. For most of his working years, he was a longshoreman at the Port of Wilmington.
If you knew Danny, you'd know that he loved his large family, old movies, music and animals. His precious cat, Babydoll, held a special place in his heart and delighted Danny daily these past few years. A gifted guitar and piano player, Danny was also quite the character. While he had his struggles, he loved life, had a good heart, and enjoyed talking to everyone he ever met
He will be dearly missed by his parents, Mary Alice and James Thomas Sr. of Wilmington; his son, Zachary Doire of Rhode Island; his sisters, Mary of Wilmington, Jane of Raleigh, N.C., and Peggy of Chadds Ford; his brothers, Jim, Jr. (Margaret) and Peter, both of Wilmington, Fred of Boise, Idaho; and many nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his beloved aunt, "AJ" (Geraldine Kenneally).
The family would like to thank Dr. Peter Finelli for his kind and dedicated care.
