Danny Peart, the brother of the late Neil Peart, has sadly passed away. His death was a result of glioblastoma, the same brain cancer that took the life of the Rush drummer.

Neil and Danny’s sister Nancy Peart Burkholder commented:
“On this dreary Sunday it is with great sadness that we share that this past Thursday evening we lost our third Peart man and 2nd brother, Danny, after his year and a half battle with glioblastoma (brain cancer).
Danny shared our amazing Peart traits that all of our men carried, a true gentleman with a kind heart and generous spirit.
We will be planting a tree at Lakeside Park beside our Father’s tree and Neil’s pavilion and will have a new award starting at this year’s golf tournament for ‘Sportsmanship’ as this was his true self. It is ironic that his golf team has repeatedly come in 2nd place!”
