Daniel R. Pallone 1967-2026
CUYAHOGA FALLS — Surrounded by his loving family, Daniel R. Pallone passed away peacefully on Sunday, March 8, 2026, after a courageous battle with metastatic stomach cancer. Dan’s deep faith in Our Lord sustained him through this arduous and challenging diagnosis. He fought valiantly and accepted his diagnosis with grace, surrendering control to God’s Will and His Mercy, finding peace and joy that granted him unexpected strength in union with the suffering of Our Lord. He surrendered his fear to God and viewed his illness as a way to share in Our Lord’s redemptive work. We were all so very blessed to be with him during these overwhelmingly difficult circumstances where he found the hope, strength, peace and love to endure this cross.
Dan was the 10th of 10 children born to Albert and Geri Pallone on Oct. 25, 1967. A lifelong resident of Cuyahoga Falls, Dan enjoyed music and was proficient in playing the guitar. He also loved riding his motorcycle and spending time with his daughter, Samantha, and his family. He worked in the construction, trucking and music industries for several years.
Dan was preceded in death by his parents, Albert and Geri Pallone; sister, Patti Cardina; sister-in-law, Debra Pallone; great-nephew, Seth Pallone; and brother-in-law, Patrick Pirollo.
He is survived by his daughter, Samantha, and her mother, Rebecca; siblings, Philip (Cheri) Pallone of Fort Collins, Colorado, Shonda Pirollo (Patrick, d), Mary Pallone, Susan (Randall) Knight, Mark Pallone (Debra, d), Thomas Pallone, Jeff Pallone and Caroline (Anthony) Kovacic; his dear, devoted companion, Leslie Noall; as well as a multitude of nieces, nephews, great-nieces, great-nephews, cousins and friends.
The family would like to thank the physicians, nurses and staff of UH Seidman Cancer Center, Cleveland, Richard Hoehn, M.D., and Sakti Chakrabarti, M.D., Cleveland Clinic Foundation, for their excellent care of Dan, and the kind, compassionate and caring staff at the Cleveland Clinic Justin T.
