Daniel “Dan” MacEachern

Dear Marianne, so sad to hear of Dans passing. A kind, gentle soul who was quick to smile. He was a lucky man to have a great wife and lovely family.

I am saddened to hear of Dan’s passing. I enjoyed working with Dan until his retirement. It was always a joy talking to him and learning from him. He was a giant man, physically, as well as the space he occupied in our hearts. Our thoughts and prayers will be with his family.

Thinking of you and the family…

Marianne and family. We are so sorry to hear about Dan. Our deepest condolences.

I was deeply saddened to hear of Dan's recent passing. My heartfelt condolences go out to Marianne and family. Dan was a colleague of mine on the amputee team at St. Mary's /Parkwood Hospital for 25 years in my capacity as Social Worker. He was highly respected for his knowledge and skill as a prosthetist. Just as important he was a good man with a generous nature and wonderful sense of humour who clearly cared about his countless number of prosthetic clients . I was fortunate to be able to call him a friend. He will be greatly missed. Rick Mullen

It is with a heavy heart today, that I pay tribute to Dan. He was such a kind, generous man that would do anything for anyone that was in need, never expecting anything in return! His sense of humour, big smile and bigger laugh, coming from an otherwise pretty quiet guy, always made me laugh. On those many hockey road-trips over the years, he and Marianne, without hesitation, welcomed Dave & I to ‘hitch a ride’ with them for every game and tournament, which made those years ones that I will never forget! I would like to express my sincere condolences to Marianne, D.J., Andrew and their families. Dan the Man, as we so fondly called him, may be gone; but he will never be forgotten!

I am so very sorry to hear this news Marianne, DJ, Andrew and families. I was lucky to work with Dan for many years. Much learning was ‘on the job’, and Dan was an early and ongoing teacher, as well as a respected craftsman. I will miss his sense of fun at team gatherings away from work…the mischievous grin… xo Michele and Martin

Dear Marianne, DJ and Andy, My heart goes out to each of you.  Words fall short but please know that I am thinking of you and your families and sending caring thoughts your way.

Marianne and Family - We are so sad to hear of Dan's passing. I was very lucky to consider him a friend, but also a mentor in the world of amputee prosthetics. I also can't begin to count the number of times I relied on him to provide a venue for "my" (the Amputee Team's) summer pool parties! Our condolences to you all.

Dan, Andrew and Marianne-please accept my condolences on the passing of your father and husband. I remember the family from your days at Westmount. Your family will be in my prayers in the days ahead. Stay strong during this very difficult time.

I’m so sorry to hear of Dan’s passing. Sending my condolences to his entire family. I always enjoyed working with him.

Marianne, DJ, Rayna, Andy and Maria, We are very sorry to hear of Dan's passing. We always enjoyed the time we spent together with you and Dan. He was a great guy that always had a smile. We were talking about Dan last week and that I've literally known him my entire life. He'll be missed by all.

Marianne and Family, We are very sorry to hear about the recent passing of Dan. We are very grateful to have known such a great man and will cherish the memories spent together by your pool and our holiday parties. He was dedicated to his work and his patients and we learned so much from him. Thinking of you, Eliana and Dino

I had the privilege of working with Dan on the Southwestern Amputee Team at Parkwood and St Mary’s from 1983 to 2014. He cared a great deal for his patients, and thru his exceptional skills, guided the team to the right decisions. I also had the unfortunate experience of playing poker with Dan. My wallet still suffers. My condolences to Marianne and family.

Dear Marianne, DJ, Andy and families, we are so sorry for your loss. We have known Dan for so long he felt like family when I ran into him. Dan fit right into the club at Somerset School drop off and pick up of the grandkids, we are going to miss seeing him chasing Mason to his door. Andy probably remembers me saying about a month ago that Dan wins Grandpa of the year award! We are thinking about you guys, and thinking about Dan...he will be missed.

Sincere sympathy to all. Dan was such a great, friendly guy. Bill always thought he had a very “impish” smile. Definitely a wonderful person who helped many people during his lifetime.
