Obituary Overview
Donald David McNicoll
Donald (Don) passed away peacefully on Friday, November 17, 2017. Born in Prince Albert, Saskatchewan on March 26, 1925, he loved calling Edmonton home. He was predeceased by: his parents, David and Bertha; his brothers, Cameron, Howard and David; and his beautiful wife of almost 60 years, Dorothy.
Don was an ever-loyal friend. He was also a natural athlete who especially loved golf and hockey. At the age of 17, he was drafted to the NHL farm team, the Oil Kings, but instead enlisted in the Royal Canadian Navy to serve in WWII. Upon his return, he supported his family as a long time employee of Western Supplies Ltd. He also pursued many hobbies. He hunted, bowled, did wood working, built elaborate model train displays, raised four beloved dogs, and always had a project on the go at the cottage he built at Wizard Lake.
He will be keenly missed and forever remembered by: his younger brother, Lloyd (Yvonne); daughter, Laura (Robert) Gander; grandchildren, Stuart (Tiina) Gander and Heather (Faris) Matani; great-grandchildren, Jasper, Sara, Emilia, Eden, Ella, Amina and Zachariah; and his extended family and many friends.
A private celebration of his life will be held at a later date. Memorial donations may be made to the charity of one’s choice.
