He was predeceased by his parents, Ernest and Marjorie Giese. He is survived by his family: daughter Lauren Coates (Iain); and son Kyle Giese (Megan Schwartz); their mother Janet Giese; sister Marlene (Harold) Klassen; brother Rod (Heather) Giese; and nieces and nephews.
Daryl was born in Morris, MB on October 2, 1960. He moved to Winnipeg at age 19 and was successful in sales and management at Tip Top Tailors. In 1987 he began his career at Canada Post Corporation. Daryl mostly worked in corporate sales and service and retired as Manager of the Control Centre for Western Canada. His most enjoyable venture was launching ePost as a new innovative electronic service.
After retiring from Canada Post, he enjoyed selling hunting and sport equipment to various retailers and lastly worked in the gun department at Cabela's. His satisfaction in sales always came with finding products and services that met the needs of his clients.
Daryl was an active member of the St. Hubertus Game and Fish Association. He often organized the season's sporting clay shoots and received many awards and trophies for his own accomplished targets.
Daryl was an outdoorsman and felt most comfortable being close to nature to enjoy the wildlife. His final homestead was a cabin on 40 acres of natural forest, where he could watch deer and bears from his window. Daryl had a love for all animals and especially missed his beloved chocolate Labrador retriever, Bear.
Daryl was always an active member of a Lutheran church. First growing up in Morris, then raising his family with his wife at Sherwood Park Lutheran Church. He took part in council, committees and sang in the choir.
Thank you to the staff at Health Sciences Centre for their care over these past weeks.
A memorial service will take place on Thursday, June 13, 2019 at 2:00 p.m. at Faith Lutheran Church, 1311 Dakota St. A private family interment of ashes will take place at a later date.

My thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this difficult time. It was a pleasure to work closely with Daryl in Commercial Sales & Service for several years. Daryl was also my Commercial Service Manager for a few years. What a great boss! He had such a wonderful and warm personality. He was always such a gentleman and well respected by colleagues and customers. Lauren and Kyle, your Dad spoke highly of both of you frequently. He was so proud of both of you. May the memories of Daryl’s terrific personality and contributions in life be celebrated by all he knew. Daryl, “May you Rest In Peace and comfort. You will forever be in our hearts and memories.” - Posted by: Mona Devion (Friend and colleague) on: Jun 04, 2019

I didn't work directly with Daryl, but felt like I knew him. Probably because of when I did encounter him he gave his full attention, showed interest, was friendly and affable, and always remembered your name. He made a difference in the lives of those he met, and will be missed. - Posted by: JIM HEAD (Co-Worker. Canada Post) on: Jun 03, 2019

I was so very saddened to hear of Daryl's passing and send my condolences to his entire family. I worked with Daryl at Canada Post for a number of years and for a time, he was my Manager in Commercial Service. Daryl was a wonderful colleague and moreover, a kind and supportive leader. Some of my best memories of working with Daryl were the long philosophical talks we would have when we really should have been talking about work. His time at CPC will be fondly remembered by me and many others. - Posted by: Lori Friesen (CPC Colleague) on: Jun 01, 2019

I knew Daryl very well during his time at Canada Post and considered him a friend. Daryl Giese was truly a kind person who loved his family very much. He also often spoke of his love for the outdoors. He loved food, especially the office Christmas lunches that I arranged for everyone in Sales and in Operations. My very sincere condolences to Daryl’s family on his passing. He went way too early. Rest in Heavenly Peace forever my friend.
