Dennis ( Denny) W. Mann

September 12, 1937- November 13, 2024

Dennis ( Denny) Mann passed away peacefully on November 13, 2024.

Dennis is survived by his loving wife of 66 years, Laura Mann (nee Loewen). Dennis was a very proud father/grandfather/great grandfather of three children; Jay ( Stacy), Darien ( Ralph) and Joseph (Lakshmi). Eight grandchildren; Heather (deceased), Daryl (Chelsea), Graham (Shannon), Breanne (Johnathan), Zachary (Kate), Mitchell (Jessa), Anand and Taij. Six great grandchildren; Avery, Charlotte, Loewen, Adeline, Logan and Dennis.

Dennis was the third son of Margaret and Aaron Mann (both deceased). He was predeceased by his two older brothers, Aaron and Donald. Dennis is survived by younger brother Lewis.

He worked at the Edmonton Journal for 45 years, during this time he had three trades; Stereotyper, Pressman and Machinist/Millwright. In 1963 Dennis and Laura moved to their acreage near Sherwood Park, where they lived for 38 years. They enjoyed retirement in Sechelt for the past 23 years.

Dennis dedicated his life to his family, community and church. He was always there to lend a hand or fix something. His values, principles, dependability and work ethic set a precedent to strive for. He was happiest when the pool was full of laughing children or when a new family baby was sleeping on his chest.

Our family would like to thank the Vancouver Coastal Health Services and Palliative Care Teams for providing care and support beyond all expectations. Memorial contributions may be made to Sunshine Coast Hospice Society, 4602 Simpkins Rd, Sechelt BC V7Z 0E7, www.coasthospice.com.

A Celebration of Dennis’ Life will be held in the spring.
