David SCHURMANN Obituary

 

He was not on the list.

DAVID ROBERT SCHURMANN June 7, 1943 - Mach 2, 2020 David was so proud to have been an actor and director, professionally employed for over fifty years. He was a distinguished member of the acting ensemble at the Shaw Festival in Niagara-on-the- Lake, Ontario for decades. A consummate gentleman, his easy generosity with his fellow artists made David a natural mentor to the generation of actors that followed. In addition to the success he found in his career, David was fulfilled in his personal life and deeply devoted to his wife of 35 years, Maureen del Degan. David came from an extraordinary family that will miss him profoundly. He leaves behind his nephew Carl Schurmann. Late Fragment by Raymond Carver And did you get what you wanted from this life, even so? I did. And what did you want? To call myself beloved, to feel myself beloved on the earth.

Schurmann was born on June 7, 1943 in London, England, UK. He was an actor and director, known for Blind Date (2019), Side Effects (1994) and Warehouse 13 (2009). He was married to Maureen del Degan. He died on March 2, 2020 in Parkdale, Ontario, Canada.
