Daniel was born in Lynn, Massachusetts, the son of the late James and Nancy (neé Kant) Liakos. Daniel grew up in Peabody, Massachusetts, where he graduated from the vocational program of Peabody Veterans Memorial High School.
Friends and family will remember Daniel for his creativity, intelligence, wit, and reverence for nature and animals.

He also worked as a dental technician for many years. Daniel’s favorite place to spend time was in the woods near his property, where he found peace and tranquility in his spirituality.
