Sydney
It is with great sorrow that we, the family, announce the passing of Roderick ‘Rod’ MacDougall, age 71, on Saturday, May 22, 2021 at the Northside General with his loving partner, Earl King by his side.
Born in Sydney, Ros was the son of the late John and Ethel (MacKinnon) MacDougall.
Rod spent his life doing the things he loved most.. cooking and baking. He worked as the Kitchen Manager at Ziggy’s until he retired.
Rod was an amazing man and will be missed by so many. Some of his favorite things to do were reminiscing about Iona, baking, playing with his grandchildren by the pond in his backyard and spending time out in the garden planting flowers with Earl. He was at his happiest when he was holding a cup of Robin’s coffee.
Rod was survived by his partner, Earl King; children, Shaun (Alana), Jason (Michelle), and Jennifer (Terry); grandchildren, Hunter, Jeremy, JJ, Luca, Brennan, Brianna, Mya, and Emmett; sister, Rita and brothers, Raymond (Marillian) and Donald (Bonnie).
Rod will truly be missed by all that had the pleasure of knowing him. We know he is at peace in heaven with his beloved puppy, his little shadow, Sabrina.
Funeral arrangements are entrusted to the care and direction of Pier Community Funeral Home.
Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of MacDOUGALL Roderick ‘Rod’ 2021..
