Obituary

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Daniel Robert Morrison on December 29th, 2021 in Penticton, BC after a short battle with cancer. He will be deeply missed by his loving wife of 31 years Joan, daughter Georgia Mack (Warren) and grandchildren Katelyn and Ashley, daughter Kristina Fraser (Andrew) and grandchildren Quinn and Jaiden, stepson Jeff Pilkington (Jill) and grandchildren Erika and Luke, stepson Jim Pilkington (Julie) and grandchildren Mya and Preston, and stepson Mike Pilkington (Sarah) and granddaughter Jordan. Dan is also survived by siblings Diane Fushtey, Kathy Moore, and Brian Morrison (Peggy).

Dan was born in 1949 in Summerside, Prince Edward Island, the middle of 5 children. At the age of 20, he moved to the west coast and settled in Lynn Valley, North Vancouver, where he raised his family. Dan was a bright, creative man with interests in mechanics and carpentry, operating a successful cabinetry company. He was an avid skier and tennis player, and in his later years, golfer. Dan and Joan enjoyed boating on the coast of BC and travelling to many different places in the world together. Since retiring, Dan appreciated warmer weather and a quieter lifestyle spending his summers in Naramata and winters in La Quinta. Dan most looked forward to the times when the whole family would gather together for holidays in these special places. Dan had a unique ability to connect with people through his genuine interest, quick wit and sense of humour. His family was most important to him, and he will be lovingly remembered as a caring husband, father, grandpa, brother and friend. A celebration of his life will be held in Naramata for family and friends at a later date.
