Patrick John MacDonald
MacDonald, Patrick John, age 54,
Ballantyne’s Cove. It is with great sadness that we announce
the death of Pat.
Pat worked as a welder in his early
years; however, for the past 20 years, he did what he loved most;
fish. Pat was the Captain of the ‘Tanya Lynn’ and
could be found on the wharf any time of the day, working on his boat
and getting things ready for lobster fishing. On the off season, he
fished silver sides with his good friend Archie, and built lobster
traps. He was always willing to lend a helping hand to anyone in need.
His smile and laugh brought joy to many. Although a quiet and private
man, Pat had many close friends. He lived at home and will be dearly
missed by his mother, Isabel.
Besides his mother, he is survived by
brothers, Colin V. (Nathalie), Pomquet; Blaise, Ballantyne’s
Cove; Irving (Karen), Medicine Hat, Alta; godsons, Adam and Brandon;
and nieces and nephews, Ryan, Adam, Jack, Katey, Callahan, Colin AP,
Sarah Jane, Charlie, and Brayden.
He was predeceased by his father,
Augustine; grandparents, Patrick and Sophie Murphy and Colin and Mary
Ellen MacDonald.
Visitation will be in C.L. Curry
Funeral Home, 135 College Street, Antigonish from 2 to 4 and 7 to 9 pm
on Thursday August 2nd. Funeral Mass will be
held in Holy Rosary Church, Ballantyne’s Cove on Friday,
