Dale McGinnis, age 51 years, passed away peacefully at home on Saturday, May 23rd, 2015.
Dale had been with Investors Group for over 20 years and during that time he had received many awards. Most recently, he had been honoured as one of the top Division Directors in Canada.
Dale was extremely passionate about business however it was the individual relationship that he had with each of his clients that he valued the most.
Dale loved giving back to his community and, as a result, had been a member of the Lakehead Rotary Club. When Dale wasn’t working, he loved to spend time with his family and friends. He enjoyed many years camping and fishing, playing euchre with friends, and travelling. He especially loved every moment he spent with his grandchildren.
Dale will be sadly missed by his wife of 20 years; Cheryl, his three sons; Michael (Nathalie), Justin (Courtney) and Sydney, his three grandchildren; Zach, Bella and Maxael, and his “girl” Sammy.
Dale is also survived by his parents; Linda and Garth McGinnis, his sister Heather (Darcy), his brothers; Scott (Tammy) and Darren, his in-laws; Steve Stokaluk, Fran Stokaluk, Phyllis Stokaluk, Stepanie and Giorg Prete as well as by numerous nieces, nephews and extended family.
Dale loved life and always lived it to the fullest, so his family would like to invite everyone to wear bright colours when they join them to celebrate Dale’s life on Wednesday, May 27th, 2015 at the Italian Cultural Centre, 132 Algoma Street. Family and friends may come and go anytime between 11:00 a.m. and 1:30 p.m.
If anyone so desires, in lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made in Dale’s memory to the Children’s Wish Foundation.
