Dave MacInnis
1972-2018
It is
with very heavy hearts that we share the passing of our son, brother
and father, David MacInnis, who passed away peacefully at his home in
Calgary, Alberta on June 5, 2018.
Dave
was born in New Glasgow on December 22, 1972 and grew up in both New
Glasgow and Pictou, Nova Scotia. Dave was a graduate of Pictou Academy
and Holland College. He left shortly after in 1992 for Ottawa where he
began his 25 year career as an Orthodontic Lab Technician. For the
past 7 years, Dave lived in Calgary working at Cory Liss Orthodontics
where he made many friends and succeeded in his
profession.
Dave
had a zest for life, his family, and friends, and we loved him dearly.
He was very proud of his precious daughter, Rebecca, and her many
accomplishments. Dave loved sports and reading. He was a lifelong
student, always searching for knowledge and excelling at each and
every challenge he pursued. Dave was very friendly
and outgoing and had a gift for making friends wherever he went and
had a knack for making you smile.
Dave
is survived by his beloved daughter, Rebecca Negus; his parents, Linda
(Canning) and Rollie MacInnis; brothers, Jason MacInnis (Ashley
Greening) and Jon MacInnis; sister, Betsy MacKenzie; nephew, Ethan and
niece, Aubrey; cousin and close friend, Jody Canning; multiple aunts,
uncles, and cousins.
Dave
had a huge heart and we could always count on him to make us laugh; he
will be dearly missed by all who knew him.
