September 27, 2024 - January 25, 1944
It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Daniel Thomas Camps on September 27, 2024.
Danny was in his home, surrounded by his family and in the loving arms of his wife when he passed. He had been bravely battling cancer for several years and was proud to be affectionately referred to as “A tough old bugger” by all who were involved in his care.
Born January 25, 1944, in Didsbury Alberta to Tom and Hazel Camps. Dan gave us 80 years of love, laughter and amazing memories. He was a very loving
patriarch to his family and all the extra ”family” he adopted along the way.
He is survived by his wife of 59 years, Beth, brother Steve (Ann) Camps, all his ‘fave’ daughters, Tina (Richard) Dunsmore, Tammy (Darryl) Penner, Kathy (Mike) Wingfield, Dana (Keenan) Millner, 13 grandchildren and 23 (and counting) great grandchildren, as well as numerous extended family members and friends.
Danny was a one of a kind. This unique man will be remembered for his quick smile that lit up his eyes and entire face, hearty laugh, under the chin tickles,
tickle hugs, and unwavering love for his family. We know he was welcomed with open arms and smiles by all the people who passed before him.
Cheers to you, Dan, Danny, dad, daddy, brother, uncle, grampa, papa, lil papa.
Always on our minds and forever in our hearts.
No service at his request.
In lieu of flowers the family asks that donations be made to either the Prince George Home Hospice program (pghpcs.ca) or the BC Cancer Centre for the North (bccancer.bc.ca)
