It is with great sadness we announce the passing of Douglas Eugene O’Leary at the Dr. Everett Chalmers Hospital on Monday, March 16, 2020. Douglas was born in Beaver Dam, NB on February 10, 1929, son of the late Harry and Gladys (Mersereau) O’Leary. He will be sadly missed by his wife of 72 years, Mabel (McCutcheon); daughter Linda (Bill) Canney of Beaver Dam; grandsons, Troy Brewer of Cambridge ON and Trevor (Lisa) Brewer of Beaver Dam; great-grandchildren, Jacob, Noah and Oxonna; sister, Marie (Wayne) Charters of New Maryland; brothers, Harold O’Leary of Denver Colorado, Herb and Phillip (Vonda) O’Leary of Beaver Dam; brother-in-law, Max Peterson; several nieces and nephews.
Doug worked at different jobs ending with 28 years at SMT Eastern Ltd. He was an avid outdoors man and loved hunting and fishing. He also enjoyed his woods working shop until his eyesight failed.
He was a husband, father, father-in-law, grandfather, brother, uncle and friend. His warmth and love will be with us always. There will be no funeral at his request. His wish was for a graveside service to take place at the St. John The Evangelist Cemetery in Beaver Dam at a later date.
Donations in memory of Doug made to the Holy Trinity Anglican Church (1224 Hwy 101, Nasonworth, NB E3C 2C4) or the charity of choice would be greatly appreciated by the family.
