Will Always Love you Uncle Dan!

"Hello Sir!" that's how I usually greet Mr. Bancroft almost everyday at work... he would always give me a big smile. I was saddened when I heard about Mr. D. Bancroft's passing. A gentleman and a respectable person. I'm going to miss one of my best resident.

My sincerest sympathy to  Wendy and the whole Bancroft family. Your love and support for Dan was the reflection of how good he was as a husband, brother, uncle, grandfather and a father. You guys are the best! My love and prayers to all of you. I am sorry I was not able to pay respect to the legend but rest assure he will be in my prayers. I will miss seeing all your smiling face at work (warm hugs to all of you). It was an honor serving Mr. Bancroft. May his soul rest in peace.

On the behalf of the Wardens, Officers and all members of 
Eureka Lodge No. 20, It is with deep sadness that we express our
condolences to the Bancroft family on the passing of Bro. Joseph "Dan" Bancroft.  Dan was a leader whose significant contributions
to our fraternity and his interaction with those  who knew him

Thomas Holder
Worshipful Master of Eureka Lodge No. 20 

Our heartfelt sympathy to the entire Bancroft family from the Benjamin family both here and in Barbados.

Dan was a leader, an advocate and above all a friend, not only to us personally, but to the Barbadian community as a whole. Always a smile, always a gentleman, even in his later days as his health diminished. He will long be loved, remembered and missed.

May he rest in peace and rise with Christ in glory.

On behalf of the government of Barbados, the High Commission and the Consulate General I offer condolences to the family and friends of Joseph "Dan" Bancroft. 

May the fond memories of a man who among other attributes has been described as a visionary, a patriot, a leader and very community minded, comfort you in this time of sorrow.

May he rest in peace and rise again in glory.

Consul General Sonia Marville-Carter 

"Dan", a long standing leader in the Barbadian-Canadian community, was an outstanding public servant, faithful "ambassador" for his native home, Barbados, "consul-general" (at Toronto) before the office existed, philanthropist, and friend.

His Christian witness and Barbadian upbringing informed the way he touched and influenced all who knew him.

Marc and Luke will always remember their many visits, as little boys, to Mandarin with "Uncle Dan". 

Our condolences are extended to his siblings, family, fraternal community, and all who mourn his passing.

May he rest in peace.

Stephen, Lucy, Marc & Luke Fields, Philip & Valerie Cadogan. 

Sincere condolences to the Bancroft family on the passing of Dan. He was a positive influence in the lives of a great many persons in Canada, USA and Barbados. His drive, refusal to give up inspired those of us who had an opportunity to interact with him and will always remain with us. May he Rest In Peace!

To Dear Wendy and Family,

I am so sorry to hear of your father's passing. 

May you keep the wonderful memories you made together close to your heart. 

My sincerest condolences to you during this difficult time.

With Love,
Annemarie and Dan

I am deeply saddened by Dan's passing and extend my sincerest condolences to his entire family.  Dan will always be remembered for the many lives he touched and his love for Barbados and all Barbadians. It was his encouragement and long chats which led me to forming The Barbados Nurses Assoc. in Toronto.  I will always remember him fondly.  May he rest in peace and rise in glory.

Michael, Wendy and families: It was with great sadness that we heard the news of your Dad and Grand Dad- our Uncle Dan's passing. Though a great loss, he has left us with a richness of memories - from childhood right through to our adult years. From being our Santa Claus to the many family gatherings, outings and activities he organized when we were kids to sitting discussing Canadian and Bajan politics as an adult. I was always proud to identify as Dan Bancroft's nephew when I met people who knew him and people who had been helped by him. Know that though he is gone, he remains with us and in us in many ways. Gone but not lost, out of sight but still in our hearts, minds and souls. Our lives brighter for having had him in them. Uncle Dan, you have gone to your well deserved rest. We will miss you always, love you forever, forget you never. 
Rest in peace. 
Love, your nephew Andrew, Tina, Elijah, Isaiah and Rachel.

Dear Wendy, Michael and all the family: As God has called my beloved and loving brother Joseph (Dan) Bancroft home to be with him in heaven, we are all deeply mourning this great loss with you. Dan, I will always remember your great help as my supply teacher when I was in high school. Thank you and God bless you. So farewell my dear brother, someday we will see each other again.

Rest Eternal,

Your loving sister,

Mary Bancroft Springer 

Uncle Dan, you will be greatly missed. Not only by me, but by our whole family, community, and city, as you did so much for all of the above in your lifetime. 

You have been an inspiration to me as you have contributed and accomplished so much in your lifetime. And you showed everyone that you can be determined and accomplished while sharing smile and a joke. 

Since, I’ve become a father, I often remember that you dressed up as Santa Claus for the family at Christmas time. Now that I’m a father, I look forward to following in your footsteps in this regard as well, and passing this on. 

It goes to show that you will live on through the big things and the seemingly small things that you did that made so many wonderful lasting impressing on all of us. We will eventually find solace knowing you left us better off because of you. 

And you left us when you were 91 years old. Why must you always set the bar so high. 
Oh, and say hello to Grandma, Granddad, Elwin, Uncle Ernest, and all the others for us. 💕

Rest In Peace Uncle Dan. 
🙏🏾🙏🏾😇😇

To Wendy, Michael & the rest of the Family,

Of all the many blessings
However great or small
To have had you for an uncle was the greatest one of all.
The family chain is broken now and nothing seems the same.
But as God calls us one by one the chain will link again.

Thank you Uncle Dan for all the joyful memories.

Rest In Peace!
Love Carri

Goodbye to a true gentleman.
It is so very sad  in view of the present situation  that we are unable to provide him with the farewell we all would have wished.

To Wendy, Michael &  Family,

I would like to send my deepest condolences to your family for the loss of your father.

It was a pleasure meeting and getting to know Uncle Dan. My fondest memory of Uncle Dan is.... I had the opportunity of dancing with him and I must say that he can cut a rug.  It was a great day to see him smiling.

Thanks Uncle Dan for the dance...you will be missed

                                                                                                                 Love Jules

To Wendy, Michael & the rest of the Family,

My deepest sympathies on the passing of Uncle Dan.  He was truly a blessing in my life and I will miss him.   I will always remember his voice, his laughter and the love he had for his family.  I mourn with you all.  May his sole rest in peace as he takes his seat at the feet of our Lord and Master.  

R.I.P.  Uncle Dan!
Love Cherri

May He Rest In Peace.

It's  with  deep regrets that I accept  the  passing  of my long time friend and mentor Dan.  A super supporter when I needed it most. A brother always cool to the touch. 
May You Rest  in Peace and Rise in Glory 
To the Bancroft family I extend my deepest sympathy. 
Willis. 


My favourite memories of my grandfather is when he spent the holidays with us.  We always had a great time together.

My most memorable moments of my grandfather is when  Carlitos and I visited or called Grandad, he would always greet us by saying "hello-hello!".

Thank you Grandad for loving us so much and being the best grandfather ever.

God Bless you.

Carlitos and Aaliyah

To Dad,

I will fondly remember our long  afternoon chats and our shared love of "flavoured" beverages aka "smilies".  

Thank you for the love you showed me from the day I met you. You welcomed me into the family with open arms and I will never forget that.

May you rest in peace and you will never be forgotten.

With all my love,

Your Son-In-Law Phillip










Dad,
I  cannot put into words what you mean to me.  I want to thank you so very much for being such a wonderful Father.   The time we spent together will live on in my heart forever.  

May you rest in peace until we meet again.

With all my love today, tomorrow and forever.

Wendy
