Dinis Soares Assuncao, aka Danny, passed away on July 4, 2022 in Texas City, Texas at age 75.  He was born in Torreira, Portugal on November 4, 1946 to his late Father Antonio Alfredo Assuncao and late Mother Maria Soares Assuncao.  He immigrated to the United States as a teenager and settled in Connecticut until he moved to Texas, where he lived for the last 43 years of his life.

Danny was a proud United States Army Veteran.  He was the owner of his own business in the construction industry for more than 40 years until he retired.  

Danny enjoyed spending quality time with his family at home Portuguese style eating and visiting with his loved ones. He was a great cook and his corned beef and cabbage dinner was a favorite to celebrate.  He was an avid sports fan and enjoyed watching his favorite sports teams play. No matter what he was watching, whether it was the Astros playing baseball or Portugal playing soccer, he was in his recliner with his cat Boo cheering them on. Danny frequently enjoyed taking a ride to the Texas City Dike to watch his buddies fish, look for parrots, admire the ships, or simply enjoy the water that he loved so much. When he was well enough to fish, he would do so in search of flounder and liked to share with others his bounty.  He also enjoyed sharing his skills in net casting, filleting and of course the best spot to catch fish with those he cared for.  He was the jack of all trades and could fix just about anything by watching YouTube videos or tinkering with whatever needed fixing.  He is loved and will be missed by many from coast to coast.  

Danny is survived by his common-law-spouse Kathy Beckett; children Debbie Assuncao (Marc) Bruce, Susanne Assuncao (Jason) Flatt, and DW Likens; grandchildren Jacquelyn Bruce, Ian and Justice Flatt, and Jordan and Taylor (Emily) Likens; great grandchildren Jack and Noah Likens; and siblings Jack Assuncao, Marie Leatherman, Palmira Tribanas, and Gina Tavarez. He also leaves behind numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends who were so dear to his heart. In addition to his parents, Danny was predeceased by his grandson Blake Greyson Bruce; brother Jose Assuncao; and several nieces, nephews, family members, and friends who are now with him in heaven.
