DANIEL WAYNE, beloved husband of Melody and loving Daddy of Blake, Brianna and Bethany, went to be with his Lord and Savior on July 20, 2011 at St. Michael's Health Care Centre at the age of 36 years.

Besides his wife and children, Daniel is survived by his parents Ron and Tina Konynenbelt, his sister Corinne (Mike) Fehr and their children Hayley, Adrian and Elisa, brothers; Tim (Mandy) Konynenbelt, Eric Konynenbelt, his oma Cornelia Heins, and grandma Johanna Konynenbelt. He will be sadly missed by numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, in-laws and friends. He was predeceased by his father-in-law Ian Macadam, mother-in-law Anne Macadam, his opa Fred Heins and grandpa Joe Konynenbelt.

Dan was born in Lethbridge on January 24, 1975 and raised near Nobleford where he was raising his own family. He attended Noble Central School and graduated from the University of Lethbridge in 1999 where he was involved in IVCF. It was here that he met his wife Melody and married her on September 1, 2001.

Dan worked with his Dad and brothers at RTK trucking.

He was a wonderful, intelligent man who devoted himself first to his Lord Jesus Christ, his wife, and his children, of whom he was very proud.

He enjoyed driving, computers, camping, hiking, biking and spending time with family and friends.

A Graveside Service will be held at 1:00 pm on Wednesday, July 27, 2011 at the NOBLEFORD MONARCH CEMETERY, followed by a Memorial Service at 2:00 pm at the NOBLEFORD CHRISTIAN REFORMED CHURCH, 522 Highway Avenue, Nobleford, Alberta, with Pastor Nigel Wheeler of Lakeview Bible Church, officiating.

He will be greatly missed, although we celebrate in the knowledge that he is safe in the Father's arms.

And the God of all grace, who called you to His eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will Himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast. To Him be the power forever and ever. Amen (I Peter 5:10-11)
