Murray Edward Dagg

Murray Edward Dagg of Clanwilliam passed away November 25, 2024 at Minnedosa Hospital, at the age of 66, surrounded by his family after a short battle with cancer.

Murray was born in Minnedosa Manitoba and spent his whole life in the Clanwilliam area. Murray’s career was in the exploration drilling industry, as a driller, foreman and later a drilling teacher. He travelled all around Canada throughout his years in this job. Murray and his dad also had a family farm with grain and cattle for many years. He spent his most recent years working at Co-op Ag.  Murray also enjoyed running combine during harvest for his friend Gerald's family farm.

Murray's pride and joy was his 3 sons.  He always lit up when they came to visit, especially if they brought the grandchildren along. All of his grandchildren meant the world to him.

Murray met the love of his life Sandy later in life. They got married July 15, 2023. They enjoyed the best summer of their lives camping at Rossman Lake this past summer. It’s very unfortunate they couldn't have spent many more years of happiness together.

He was predeceased by his parents, Donald and Irene Dagg.

Surviving is his beloved wife Sandy Dagg, 3 sons: Jonathon (Destiny) Dagg, Jeff (Zoe) Dagg and Charlie (Lyndie) Dagg as well as 7 grandchildren: Kira, Kae-Lynn, Bennett, Jade, Taylor, Lena and Claire. Also surviving is his sister Janice (Brian) Little, nephew Brent (Candice) Little, niece Christina (Cam) Woodcock and 6 great nieces. Murray is also survived by his sister in law Vickie (Gus) Scaletta and nephew Jason Scaletta.

A private graveside service will be held next spring at St John's Cemetery, the cemetery that Murray helped take care of alongside his dad, his son, his brother in law and many good friends.

Donations can be made to the Minnedosa Palliative Care Service in honour of Murray.

White's Funeral Home was in care of the arrangements.
