MACEACHERN Lawrence Archibald,
gone but will never be forgotten, passed away peacefully surrounded by
his family April 24, 2021 at the age of 77.
Born December 15th, 1943 in
Antigonish, Nova Scotia, he was a son of the late James and Mary
(MacDonald) MacEachern
Lawrence was funny, kind, and
always a good friend. He was as a carpenter and was well respected by
colleagues and friends. Most times you could find Lawrence in his shop
working on old cars, on his tractor, or mowing the grass. He was
always available to anyone in need to fix anything brought into his
“one hundred acres” toolbox.
Lawrence was an integral part of
our immediate and extended family. He will always be remembered with a
lifetime of beautiful memories by his wife of 52 years, Mary (Fraser);
his children: daughter, Juanita, Red Deer, AB; son, Dennis (Kaela),
Calgary; and daughter, Brenda, Antigonish; and his cherished
grandchildren: Jessica, Drew, Dahlia, Morgan, Taylor, Braden, Ella,
Caileigh, and Cooper; along with his great grandchildren Elizabeth and
Vincent.
Leaving to mourn are siblings:
Albert (Ann), Truro; Sally (Ken), Windsor Junction; and Elmer (Kathy),
Beaverbank; and many nieces, nephews, relatives, and
friends.
Besides his parents, he is
predeceased by two siblings: Helen and James.
We are so grateful for the
Palliative Care Team, especially Heather Brander and Dr. Mike
MacKenzie, as well as the staff on the Palliative Care Unit at St
Martha’s Hospital.
Cremation has taken place. A
funeral service will be held in St. Columba Cemetery, Lakevale, when
those who loved him are able to come together to celebrate his
life.
In his memory, donations can be
made to the MS Society, Antigonish Food Bank or the Alzheimer
Society.
Funeral arrangements are under
the direction of C.L. Curry Funeral Home, Antigonish. Online
