ROCHESTER —
Edward J. D'Anna, age 71, passed away, peacefully, on Wednesday, April 4, 2012 at Highlands at Brighton in Rochester, NY. Ed was born in Niagara Falls, NY, on July 5, 1940 to the late Katherine (Serio) and Joseph E. D'Anna.
He was a graduate of Lockport Senior High School and advanced his education with a Bachelor of Science Degree from the University of Buffalo. He attended Case Western Reserve in Cleveland, OH, where he graduated with a Masters Degree in Library Science.

After a few years, he moved to Grand Forks, ND, where he served as Director of the Medical Library at the University of North Dakota.
