A Celebration of Dan's Life memorial will be held 10 AM Saturday, April 9, 2022 at Sharp Funeral Homes, Fenton Chapel, 1000 W. Silver Lake Rd., Fenton, MI 48430. The family will receive friends from 9 AM - 10 AM Saturday, April 9, 2022 at the funeral home. Dan was born November 21, 1978 in Detroit, the son of Eric M. and Suzanne (Ward) Bracciano. He was a graduate of Fenton High School, Kettering University and received a Master's Degree from Oakland University. Dan was a brilliant computer engineer and started his career with Bosch where his mentor Martin took him for the first time on a business trip to Europe. Ever since Dan did not stop traveling and he worked and lived in Europe, Asia and the US. He met Claudia Janga in one of his life adventures in Germany and they immediately were in love and got married on March 16, 2013 in Shanghai, China. Dan loved to immerse himself into new cultures with the locals, try their foods, respect and honor their customs. He became very humble and aware of the beauty and love that is surrounding us. He liked to live a simple life, he knew what is important in life and often loved to cook a good meal for his loved ones. Dan and Claudia welcomed the birth of their two sons, Sebastian and Benjamin in Shanghai. Despite his stage 4 cancer diagnosis Dan tried all conventional treatments and in parallel, all alternative options as well.  Dan enjoyed his family during this time and, together with his wife, children, parents, siblings, nephews, they shared good food, laughed and cried together. Dan was an inspiration and his legacy will continue to touch the lives of so many for years to come.  Surviving are: wife, Claudia; two sons, Sebastian and Benjamin; parents, Eric and Suzanne Bracciano; sister, Mary Sushynski and husband, James; and brother, Eric G. Bracciano, father-in-law Dan Janga, brother-in-law Claudiu Janga and many aunts, uncles, cousins and friends all across the world. Tributes may be shared at www.sharpfuneralhomes.com.
