Dan was born in Winnipeg on September 25, 1965, the fourth of five children born to parents, John and Tina. He grew up on Turnbull Drive attending and graduating from St. Norbert School.
Dan began working for his dad at Southgate Enterprises shortly after graduating high school and gradually assumed more and more responsibilities in the company, eventually buying Southgate Enterprises in 2002, building it to the company it is today. He established Vulcan Attachments and A1 Canstor. In addition to the three companies and his rental properties, Dan always had his projects, renovating his houses and working on his cars. His love for speed was well known whether on his motorcycles, snowmobiles or cars.
Dan loved dogs, especially his German Shepherds. He recently adopted Lucas who became his faithful companion, going with Dan to job sites, to his office and taking Dan for long walks in the dog park.

It grieves me to here of Danny's passing. Even though we didn't keep in touch much, every time we saw each other in the truck it was always a wave and a smile. Excellent guy and really saddened by this sudden loss. My prayers are with the family and John and Tina. - Posted by: Grant Jobst (Former co-worker and business relationship) on: Jun 26, 2019

I'm so sorry to hear of Dan's accidental passing. Dan was a customer for many years and always approached business with the type of personality that put him in the "Salt of the Earth' category of people. He was a stand up guy. My deepest condolences to Dan's family. - Posted by: Gary Romijn (Friend) on: Jun 25, 2019

We are so saddened to hear of Dan's accidental passing. We didn't know him for long, but what we knew he was a great friend to us. We've shared a few evenings around a fire at the cottage and will always have wonderful memories. He certainly will be truly missed. Our warmest condolences to the family.
