Obituary of Jakah Garret MacDonald
Jakah Garret MacDonald – Age 40 of Bridgewater, Nova Scotia, passed away suddenly at South Shore Regional Hospital Bridgewater, on Friday, January 10, 2025.
Jake was the precious child of Coleen O’Neil (Tom O’Neil) of Bridgewater and Grant MacDonald (Sherry Shunamon) of Beaverbank, Nova Scotia.
Jake’s working career started part-time at CKBW and he later attended UNB to study film and television. Jake had such joy doing background work in film and local theatre. As a creative and sensitive person Jake took great pleasure in writing, photography, gardening in his Petite Jardin or searching for rock treasures with his Mom along the beaches of Nova Scotia. Although all these hobbies meant the world to him, nothing could replace the love and joy and comfort he had spending time with his little companion Rufus.
Jake was an active member of the LGBTQ+ community having been instrumental in having the first Pride Flag raising in Bridgewater as well as a former Board Member of Lunenburg County Pride.
Left to grieve are his maternal grandmother, Catherine Romans, Halifax; step-sisters; Amanda Lipsett (Darren) Bridgewater; Teresa O’Neil (Stephen Mayor), Port Alberni, BC; and half-sister, Sara Paine, Hubley, Nova Scotia.
