It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our dear husband, father and grandfather, John Peter Daniel McInnes “Dan”, on January 20, 2025, at Ste. Anne Hospital at the age of 74.
He will be missed by his wife of 55 years, Dianna; son, Dylan (Kelsey); grandson, Paxton; sisters, Laurie (Bob) and Cathy; many nieces and nephews as well as many, many dogs.
Dan was predeceased by his parents, Edla and Jack; and siblings Gail, Rob and Ric.
Born in Selkirk, MB in 1950. Dan met the love of his life Dianna, and they married in 1969. They had one son, Dylan.
Dan had been retired from Air Canada as an Aircraft Mechanic where he worked for 27 years. People and animals seemed to be drawn to Dan wherever he went. Dan and Dianna had many dogs over the years, specifically Dobermans. He also enjoyed going for long rides on his Harley and practice shooting with his grandson, Paxton.
Cremation has taken place, and with respect to Dan’s wishes no formal services are being planned.
Your last ride will take you to be with your beloved dogs.

Dad dealt with increasing dementia in his last years but it was a broken heart that eventually took him from us.
After losing his beloved wife of nearly 58 years, Bev, in 2022, his enthusiasm for life waned. He stopped eating and was weak. His continual refusal to eat in the hospital granted him his final wish, to be with his “Bevelyn.”
The many memories of dad (Papa) will be treasured by his daughter Sandy Motkaluk (Richard); son Darren (Jenn Still); grandchildren, Steven, Riley, Maryssa and Myranda Motkaluk, Abby and Ben Bernhardt; and many nieces and nephews.
Dad was born and raised in Winnipeg and spent his entire life in the Elmwood-East Kildonan area, which he fiercely loved. He was the youngest of nine siblings, many who also spent their lives in the neighbourhood. Dad was the last of them.
He was predeceased by his father Phillip in 1957, and mother Maria in 1977, as well as his seven sisters and one brother.
Dad and mom met at Elmwood High School and built a simple, happy life in a modest home. Dad spent a short time working as a travelling salesman for Arnold Bros. Transport, a family he was very fond of, before shifting to Air Canada Cargo, where he spent 33 years.
A private interment will happen at a later date at Elmwood Cemetery when his remains will be reunited with mom’s in the niche they share. The one inscribed “Together Forever.”
