Daniel Albert Macdonneil

Daniel Albert MacDonneil, son of Dennis Arnold and Veronica (Frizzell) MacDonneil, was born February 18, 1973 in Novato, California, and departed this life June 7, 2017 at his home in Mountain Grove, Missouri, after a 4 year long courageous battle with numerous forms of cancer. He was 44 years, 3 months and 20 days of age.

Dan grew up in Novato, California. He graduated high school in Petaluma, California, in 1991. Daniel was united in marriage to Nicolette Hart on July 9, 2005, in San Rafael, California. One daughter, Casey Marie, was born to this union.

Dan and his family moved to Mountain Grove, Missouri, in August 2015. Dan greatly enjoyed being outdoors and especially loved watching the storms roll in from his porch, overlooking his farm.

Dan had many passions in his life, such as spending time with his wife, Nikki, his mother-in-law, Wanda, and other family, friends and his animals. He was especially fond of his dogs, Whitney and Mari, but nothing compared to the joy he felt when he spent time with his daughter, Casey, who was the light of his entire life.

Dan was preceded in death by his step-father-in-law, Edward McBade, his grandmother, Vera Frizzell, and his friend Danny.

He is survived by his wife, Nikki MacDonneil, daughter, Casey Marie MacDonneil, his mother-in-law, Wanda McBade, his parents, Dennis and Veronica MacDonneil of Novato, California, two brothers, Dennis MacDonneil Jr., of West Plains, Missouri, and David MacDonneil of Novato, California, and many other relatives and friends who will miss him greatly.
