Daniel Paul Morabito of Abilene, Kansas went home to be with his Lord and Savior on Nov. 6, 2025.
Daniel was born in Binghamton, New York to Thelma Clark Morabito and James Vincent Morabito.
After graduating high school at Anderson Valley High School in Boonville, California, Dan attended Napa Valley College where he played football. Dan was an avid sportsman breaking records in High School and College, earning All-American.
Dan later joined the Police force, then Emergency Medical Services (EMS), as well as worked as a surgical technician. Dan moved to Kansas and excelled in Emergency Medical Services becoming Director of EMS in several Kansas counties, developing state protocols, and putting together numerous Ambulance services across Kansas.
Dan received the Norman E. McSwain MS Service Award for his achievements in emergency medical services as well as Governor’s awards for his accomplishments within EMS.
Dan owned and operated a number of his own businesses during his time while still active in EMS. After retiring from EMS he and his wife own and operate a Salon and Day Spa.
When Dan wasn’t working, which wasn’t often, you could find him on the open road riding his motorcycle, doing construction, tending to farm animals or out in his shop tinkering. Dan was always involved in his community, being a Boy Scout Leader, volunteering, active in his Church, or helping a neighbor, Dan cherished the friendships he made along the way.
Dan leaves behind a legacy not only in his commitment to EMS and saving many lives, but also in the lives of the people that were blessed enough to call him a friend. Dan built his little farm, his oasis away from chaos, his happy place. His fingerprints are on every board, every fence, every gate, every tool, a lasting reminder of a man who worked hard and trusted in his faith.
Left to mourn his passing are his Wife, Tisha Comer Morabito; Son: Sequoyah Morabito; Daughters: Shauna Morabito Boyd, Mindee Morabito Reynolds and Brooke Morabito; 6 grandchildren and one great-grandchild;
Siblings: Donald Cave Jr, Charmaine Cave-Dersham, Summer Cave, Brenda Cave-James, Christopher Cave, Mark Cave Sr., Mary Morabito Stori and Mark Morabito. Numerous nieces, nephews and grandnieces/nephews.
