Dennis Cabernel

It is with profound sadness we announce the passing of Dennis Cabernel at the age of 67 years on May 19, 2026 at the Boundary Trails Health Centre.

Dennis will be greatly missed by his wife Danielle, daughters Tricia (Brad) Wall and Jillian (Nathan Horvath) Cabernel, grandsons Logan, Austin and Myles Wall, siblings, in-laws, nieces, nephews, and many friends.

Dennis grew up on a farm near Bruxelles. His days were full, doing chores, hunting in the nearby marsh, playing hockey in town, riding dirt bikes and snowmobiles.

He spent his life working in agriculture. Even when he wasn’t involved in seeding or harvest he enjoyed driving around to see where everyone was at.

Dennis loved riding motorcycles, and made many trips to the States and BC with many friends. In the last two years he travelled to attend three NASCAR races in Kansas City, something he had always wanted to do.

One of his greatest joys was spending time with his adored grandsons. This included sharing his superb mechanical skills and knowledge with them in the fully equipped shop he had proudly built.

A Celebration of Life for Dennis will take place on Saturday, June 27, 2026, from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. at the Miami Event Centre on Golf Course Road. Family and friends are welcome to come and go as they please throughout the afternoon. The gathering will conclude with a motorcycle send-off for Dennis at 4:00 p.m.

Thank you to everyone who have expressed condolences either online, by phone or by text.

A huge thank you to the BTHC staff for the excellent and compassionate care Dennis received during the last three months.

Memorial donations can be made to the Boundary Trails Health Centre Palliative Care program.
