It is with heavy hearts that we announce the sudden passing of our beloved father and “Opa”. Daniel was predeceased by his loving wife Anna of 64 years and brother Josef. Daniel is survived by his daughter Rosemary (John), grandchildren Andrew (Asha), Jennifer (Larry), brother Vinko, nephews Daniel and James, sister-in-law Zdenka and nieces Julia and Elaine.
Daniel (Danny) was born in Eygelshoven, Holland. The family returned to Slovenia where he remained until he immigrated with his wife Anna to Canada in 1957 and settling in Vancouver. Danny was a gentleman with an amazing sense of humor and a heart full of love and protectiveness for his family. Daniel’s passion was wine making and Slovenian music. He was a strong supporter of the Slovenian Society and sponsored many bands from Slovenia to perform in the early years of the Society. Opa and Oma are now in each other’s arms, waltzing and enjoying a glass of wine.
They are forever in our hearts.
A mass and memorial service will be held at a later date.
