Dan Carson, the public-address announcer for the Calgary Stampeders, has passed away at the age of 60.

“For a couple of generations of fans attending games at McMahon Stadium as well as Stampeders players, coaches and staff, the sound of Dan’s voice was constant and reassuring and he was an important part of the game-day experience,” said Stampeders’ vice-president of business operations and former player Jay McNeil in a statement.

“He will be sadly missed and the Stampeders organization offers its heartfelt condolences to Dan’s family and his many friends.”
