It is with great sadness that the family of Douglas Haney announce his passing on August 21, 2022, at the age of 64, after a brief battle with cancer.

He leaves behind his loving wife Rosemary, daughter Kayla Santerre (Colin), son Robin Haney (Tamara), step-son Tanner Pecarski (Steph), and step-daughter Khali Pecarski. He will be greatly missed by his daughter in-law Lilliane Haney, step-father Lyle Wheatley, siblings Diane Dragan (Mark), Nelson Haney (Ruth), Deanna Haney, and Melody Shute (Mike), mother in-law Frances Kolton, as well as grandsons Michel, Mathieu, Noah, Colton, Nathan, and numerous nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his father Richard Haney, mother June Wheatley, son Jeffery Haney, mother in-law Monica Slattery, and father in-law Richard Kolton.

Throughout his life, Doug was known for his kindness, humour, and wit, as he made the best out of any situation and could always put a smile on your face. He was also extremely dedicated and hard-working, making many friends through his long career in the lumber industry. Some of his most cherished time was out at his camp at Skyview with his wife Rose, where they spent the summers enjoying the sunshine, flowers, and campfires in the company of good friends. He also treasured the time they spent on many destination vacations, soaking up the sun while relaxing and enjoying many laughs together. Doug will also be remembered for the incredible strength, grace, and concern for others that he displayed throughout his brief illness.

A private celebration of life is being held by his family members. In lieu of flowers donations can be made in his honour to the Canadian Cancer Society or Greenstone Want a Pet.
