Daniel John Matheson, 69, of Edmonton, Alberta, passed away peacefully on Monday, July 13, 2026, surrounded by the love of those whose lives he touched so deeply.
Dan was born in Halifax, Nova Scotia, on September 18, 1956. He loved life fully and fearlessly, never afraid to take risks or follow his own path. At 19, he moved west with his best and lifelong friends, Tony and Mark. Though he briefly attended university, Dan quickly realized his future would be built through hard work, determination, and an entrepreneurial spirit. With a background in pharmaceutical and industrial solvent sales, he founded DM Supplies and later had the joy of bringing his sons, Kevin John Matheson and Timothy Ross Matheson into the business.
Dan will be remembered for his adventurous spirit and the many passions that brought him joy, including touring on his Harley Davidsons (yes, more than one), fishing, camping, and later travelling abroad. He embraced the open road, the outdoors, and every opportunity to make lasting memories with the people he loved.
