John (Jack) MacIntyre MacLean
It is with profound sadness
that the family of John (Jack) MacIntyre MacLean announces his passing
on Monday, August 13, 2018 at the Moncton
Hospital.
Born on June 10, 1940 in
Moncton, he was the son of the late Roderick (R.D.) and Anne
(MacIntyre) MacLean.
After graduating from the Nova
Scotia Technical College in 1966, Jack worked in the private sector
for a few years, before opening John M. MacLean Management Ltd., an
engineering company he owned and operated until his
passing.
Jack is survived by his loving
wife Jane Mitton-MacLean of Moncton and children David of Saint John,
Tony (Tina Siauw) of Calgary and Rachel (Andy) Telzer, of Oakville,
Ont.
Grampy will also be fondly
missed by the four granddaughters he adored: Marisa and Vanessa Telzer
of Oakville, Ont., and Kate and Samantha MacLean of
Calgary.
He is also survived by brother
Roderick (Janet) of Ottawa; sister Andrea MacLean-Holohan of
Quispamsis; brother Donald (Loretta) of Shediac; brother-in-law Grant
(Cathie) Mitton of Riverview and sister-in-law Susan Carroll and her
partner George Wilson also of Riverview and several nieces and
nephews.
In addition to his parents,
Jack was predeceased by brothers-in-law Brendan Holohan and Robert
Carroll and father- and mother-in-law Ronald and Mavis
Mitton.
Aside from his family,
Jack’s greatest passion was salmon fishing, where he spent
many hours on different rivers in New Brunswick, Quebec and as far
away as Iceland.
Anyone who knew Jack quickly
learned he did not suffer fools gladly, but he did thoroughly enjoy a
vigorous debate about his two favourite subjects: politics and
sports.
He enjoyed travelling with
Jane, including their annual trip to Arizona, often accompanied by
children and grandchildren and friends. He enjoyed playing golf,
especially when there was a side bet to be had; was a fan of harness
racing and former owner and breeder of standardbred racehorses and was
a fervent supporter of the arts.
Jack’s family is
looking forward to sharing fond memories with family and friends at
Fergusons Funeral Home, 1657 Mountain Road, Moncton (858-1995) on
Friday, August 24, 2018 from 2 to 4 p.m. and 7 to 9
p.m. The funeral service will be held
Saturday, August 25 at 11 a.m. at St.
Paul’s United Church, 404 Cleveland Ave., Riverview.
Interment will be in Wesleyan Union
Cemetery.
In lieu of flowers, the family
would appreciate donations to the Terry Fox Foundation, (terryfox.org)
or Terry Fox Foundation Suite 493, 605 Prospect St. Fredericton, NB
E3B 6B8 or a charity of the donor’s choice. Online
