Parcourez la nécrologie de Bruce McCrady Friday March 28th 2025 résidant dans la province Ontario pour le détail des funérailles
After years of facing the challenges of a debilitating stroke and eventual resulting dementia, Bruce Lorne McCrady passed away peacefully at the age of 66, on March 28, 2025, surrounded by family. A husband, father, brother, and friend, Bruce’s steadfast resolve and sense of humor touched the lives of all who knew him.
Bruce was born to John and Jean McCrady née Neumann in Brockville, Ontario on April 9,1958. He was raised in Sault St. Marie, ON with brothers Brian and Mark.
Bruce attended Confederation College in Thunder Bay where he earned his diploma as an Aircraft Maintenance Technician. After working at several different places in this field he joined the Armed Forces and was assigned to the base in North Bay, ON where he met his wife, Sheila McCrady nee Pinsent in 1978. They married on June 23, 1979.
He was transferred to the Trenton Base where he served until 1980 when he left the Forces to join the Brockville Police Department. He served on the police force until 1995 when a back injury forced him to stop. He then attended Mohawk College in Hamilton where he graduated with a diploma in Business Insurance.
For 10 years he worked as an insurance adjuster and had to admit it was his favourite occupation of all that he ever had. The job took him to many different places and covered a wide range of circumstances and he loved being able to help his clients pick up the pieces after their tragedies.
Bruce was a storyteller and loved to tell of his exploits from throughout his life. He had a gift for embellishment that often left people wondering if he was telling the truth or not, but they still came back for more. He was funny and entertaining as well as encouraging and sympathetic to those who needed it.
He was active in his service in his church and there are many who will remember him fondly for the way he helped them.
He loved to fish and enjoyed woodworking, tinkering around at home and watching what he called “Shoot up everything that moves” movies.
Bruce was predeceased by his parents and leaves to mourn his devoted wife Sheila, and his four children and five grandchildren: Daughter Faith and her husband Rainer Pinto and their four children, Jasper, Evan, Katherine (Katie), and Haley Pinto, daughter Sarah McCrady, daughter Megan and her husband Tyler Reid, and son Daniel McCrady and his wife Caysha Saddleback and their daughter Chloe McCrady-Saddleback
