MacPherson, Duncan John
«DJ»- Age 75 years of
Whycocomagh, Inverness Co. With profound sadness we the
family of DJ announce his passing on Monday, January 14, 2019 in the
Inverness Consolidated Memorial Hospital, Inverness.
DJ was born in Orangedale East on February 2, 1943 he was a
son of the late Ross and Margaret (MacDonald) MacPherson. DJ was happy
and would be there for anyone, at anytime. He worked at various
jobs.
DJ enjoyed nothing more than a good game of auction. And
watch out if he was losing the game on Saturday night at his sister,
Edna’s house. He enjoyed nothing more than a good
conversation of politics, and if you weren’t talking about
the Liberal party forget it, he wasn’t chatting
politics.
DJ is survived by his chosen son, Chris Beaton, Sydney;
brothers, Thompson, Toronto; Archie (Velda), Beaver Bank; Malcolm,
Orangedale East; sisters, Mary (Frederick) MacKinnon, Ashfield; Edna
(late Dan) MacInnis, Hazeldale; sisters-in-law, Margie,
