James ‘Jim’ MacGregor
1932-2021
James Drummond « Jim » MacGregor,
passed away peacefully with his family at his side on August 27,
2021. Jim was born on November 7, 1932 in New
Glasgow, Nova Scotia, the third child to Marion (Webster) and Roderick
MacGregor. Jim was a graduate of Trinity College
School (Port Hope, ON), Royal Military College (BSc) and McGill
University (BEng). His work as an engineer took him
from the west coast of Canada to the east including several years in
Newfoundland where he met the love of his live, Elizabeth, before
settling in Halifax. In his youth, he was a gifted
athlete, playing varsity hockey, football and boxing, as well as an
avid outdoorsman and sailor. In later years, he
treasured nothing more than time spent with family, in particular at
the family cottage in Rustico. Jim will be dearly
missed by his wife, Elizabeth; children, Beth and Rod (Cathy);
grandsons, James and Peter; and sister, Pat (Tom)
Richardson. In addition to his parents, Jim was
predeceased by his sister, Cherry. At
Jim’s request, a private graveside service will take place
in New Glasgow at a later date. Donations may be made to a charity of
choice. Arrangements are under the direction of R.H. Porter Funeral
Home, New Glasgow.
