It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Daniel on Tuesday, January 15, 2019, in Dykeland Lodge, Windsor, at the age of 89. Born on May 8, 1929, in Toledo, Ohio, he was a son of the late Ralph Roland and Grace Ethel (Hosken) Spicer.

Dan joined the Canadian Navy in 1948 and served for 33 years. He enjoyed bowling, curling, darts, crib and volunteering his time to organizations like the Legion and RCMP. He will be fondly remembered, by all who knew him, for his booming laugh.
