Their sister Claudette had recently told Le Journal de Montréal that family members, including their mother, had flocked to his bedside.
The newspaper quoted the family as saying that Daniel passed away at 5 a.m. on Saturday.
"He was ready and he no longer suffers," Claudette told Le Journal de Montréal . "It was serene."
