Edward Francis MacNeill
1949-2022
Edward Francis MacNeill, 72, of Riverview, NB passed away at
The Moncton Hospital on February 26,2022. Born in Iona, Cape Breton,
he was a proud “Caper” and equally proud of being the
seventh son of the seventh son.
Ed worked in the automotive industry for most of his career –
he was the Owner and Operator of Causeway Service Centre, manager of
Riverview Tire, and service advisor at CanAm Chrysler. He also worked
a number of years at ANBL.
Ed was a kind,
generous, and loving husband, father, grandfather, and friend. He will
be forever loved and missed by his wife Lyn (Shaffner/Belliveau), son
Jason (Rebecca and her 2 children) MacNeill, stepchildren Michele
(Peter) Low and Jeffrey (Isabel) Belliveau, grandchildren Matthew,
Taylor, Michael, and Christopher of Ottawa, and brother Douglas (Pat)
of Sarnia. Ed is also survived and loved by many nieces and nephews,
his dear mother-in-law Eileen Spicer of Bridgetown, and her long-time
friend Bill Goodwin of Paradise. He was predeceased by his parents
Daniel and Marion (Peterson) MacNeill, brothers Wallace, Robert, Don,
Bill, and Lawrence, and sisters Edith and Dolores.
Sincere thanks to our wonderful friends and family who have
been so supportive, along with the Palliative Care Team at The Moncton
Hospital, Extra Mural Driscoll Unit “angels”, and Drs.
Boulay, Berger, Searle, and Mansfield.
