David "Dave" McKenzie Obituary
Dave passed away peacefully on August 30, 2024, in Medicine Hat. Born in Aldershot, England on October 15, 1944, he moved to Canada with his mum, Edith, and brother Doug to join his dad, Roy and grew up in various locations in Southern Alberta.
He is survived by his wife, Anne; his son, Lee (Tara) of Calgary anddaughter, Jan (Bryan) of Medicine Hat, their children Maia and Silas; brothers-in-law, Alfred, Edward and Walter Piper.
Dave enjoyed the outdoors, including fishing and hunting in his younger days and bird and butterfly watching as he grew older. He was genuine, a voracious reader, and sought knowledge and perspectives from everyone he met. He was an involved and active father and grandfather who enjoyed spending time with his family.
To honour Dave’s wishes, there will be no funeral service. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made directly to Grasslands Naturalists (https://grasslands-naturalists.org/), an organization very dear to his heart.
