*MacKenzie – Blaise Augustine. In loving memory of Blaise Augustine MacKenzie, 91 years who passed away on May 2nd at Golden Birches LTC, Blind River. Born in Antigonish, Nova Scotia he was the son of the late John Kenneth and Mary (MacGillivray) MacKenzie. Devoted and loving husband to the late Theresa (Smith) MacKenzie whom proudly celebrated their 70th wedding anniversary together in May of 2023. Like his brothers, he was proud to serve his country by joining the Royal Canadian Navy stationed in Cornwallis, Nova Scotia.

After retiring, Blaise and Theresa loved spending their winters in Florida, making lifelong friends. A devoted Roman Catholic, he belonged to St-Jude Parish for many years.
