After the war Dan became a carpenter, worked at the Beaver Wood Fibre Company and then Cyanamid until retirement. Instead, Dan carried Les out and swam across a canal to bring him to safety. In northern Italy, Les and Dan were taking cover in a farmhouse under fire after Les was shot and injured. His older brother Les convinced him to join him as a Bren gunner so they could stay together as the Bren light machine gun required 2 men to operate. He served in England, Italy, Belgium, and Holland during WW II. Dan joined the army at age 19 in 1941 (5th Light Anti-Aircraft Regiment, R.C.A., later the Lanark and Renfrew Scottish Regiment) and was overseas for 4 ½ years, along with three of his brothers. We will miss Dan’s stories of growing up in the Western Hill, where he lived all his life and of WW II. He was the last to pass away of the 9 children of Ernest, born in White Cloud, Indiana, and Priscilla, a British Home Child from Bolton, England, brought to Canada through Dr. Catharines General Hospital at the age of 100. It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of our dear father and grandfather, Dan on Septemat the St. Funeral Service will be held in the Chapel on Tuesday, October 4th at 11:00am. The family will receive friends at the HAINE FUNERAL HOME & CHAPEL, 26 Ormond Street South, Thorold on Monday from 5:00-8:00pm.
