Parcourez la nécrologie de Daniel Bruce Young July 13 1950 December 11 2022 résidant dans la province Colombie britanique pour le détail des funérailles
It is with profound sadness that we share the passing of our beloved husband, father, and grandfather after courageously battling cancer for two years.
Born in Victoria, Dan graduated from Mt Doug High in 1968. He then attended Camosun College and UVIC, graduating with a Bachelor of Education in 1982, followed by a Masters of Education in 1991.
Dan quickly found employment with the Sooke School District in 1973, initially as a teacher and subsequently as an administrator. During the course of his 33 years of employment in District #62 he was assigned to various elementary schools. He enjoyed working with the staff, students, and parents of each school and developing the unique qualities inherent to each school.
In his younger years, Dan’s life revolved around hockey and he was fortunate to have the opportunity in the mid-sixties to play with the Victoria Maple Leafs, a farm team of the Toronto Maple Leafs. Dan was an avid hockey fan throughout his life; he particularly enjoyed attending live games in Vancouver and Anaheim.
Retirement provided the opportunity to spend more time at Cowichan Lake during the summers and down south in the winters. His initial interest in the Model A hobby was reflected with the ground-up restoration of a 1931 Tudor and a 1931 Roadster. Over time, Dan became involved with other aspects of the hobby: attending swap meets and regional conventions, organizing car games, writing exams to become a car judge, and even acquiring Model A fashions. Dan was a member of the Van-Isle
A & B Fords, the Vintage Car Club, and the Lions Gate Model A Club.
Dan will be remembered for his devotion to family, his positive attitude when facing life’s challenges, his disciplined work ethic, his advocacy for all students to be given the opportunity to learn in the way that best suits them, his love of animals, and his sense of humour.
Dan is survived by Ingrid, his wife of 49 1/2 years; daughter, Melissa (Dan); son, Chris (Erin); and grand-daughters, Ainsley, Reese and Emilie.
A Celebration of Life will take place on Wednesday, April 19th at 2:00 pm, in the Sequoia Centre, at McCall Gardens, 4665 Falaise Dr. To assist with planning, please RSVP to dyoungcelebration@gmail.com before April 16th.
Please consider a donation in Dan’s memory to the B C Cancer Foundation, 150-686 W Broadway, Vancouver BC V5Z 1G1.
