LIVE.
It is with deep sorrow and much love that we
mourn the sudden passing of Michael John Anthony McIntosh who died at
home in New Maryland on May 4, 2022, at the age of
74.
Mike will be lovingly remembered by his wife of
53 years, Mary Jo (Sutherland) McIntosh, his children Andrew (Debbie),
Susan, Michael (Stephanie) and Joan (Rick). He also leaves behind his
nine grandchildren, to whom he was known as Mick: Patrick, Ian,
Keegan, Michael, Samuel, Allie and Lizzie McIntosh, as well as Thomas
and Daniel Huskins. He will also be dearly missed by his uncle
Frederick Whalen, PEI, Kari (Andrew) Whitaker, Natasha (Dave)
Whittaker, and Shane (Diane) Colpitts, Spencer McIntosh, Madison
Theriault and Keira Parker, brothers-in-law Leonard (Leona)
Sutherland, Dan (Anne) Sutherland, John (Charlene) Sutherland, Lauchie
(Brenda Mullen) Sutherland, and Roy (Connie MacGregor)
Sutherland.
Born in Saint John, New Brunswick, Mike was the
son of the late Michael A. McIntosh and Elizabeth (Whalen)
McIntosh. He was also predeceased by his brother Rayford and
his wife Donnelly (Marks) McIntosh. At St. Malachy’s High
School, Mike was an enthusiastic Rugby player, who played to avoid the
potential harassment of his peers for being in the school
choir. He continued these interests in his days at St.
Francis Xavier University, where he met his best friend and wife, Mary
Jo.
Mike was known as an integral part of his
church community, at the church of Sts. John and Paul in New
Maryland. He was a founding member (Chainsaws and beverages
in tow) of the parish in 1978 and has been an active member ever
since.
He was a proud civil servant both at the
federal and provincial levels. He truly believed in the
importance and value of his work. Mike especially enjoyed
his work with the New Brunswick Community Colleges and the level of
commitment in the people with whom he worked. His career has provided
him with many life-long friendships that continue today.
After his retirement, Mike spent his time cooking, reading anything
that he could get his hands on, travelling with Mary Jo, and spending
time with his family. He also longed for the day that the
Leafs would finally win the cup. . . in
colour.
Mike will be remembered for his unique sense of
humour, his love of family, but mostly for the kindness and goodness
that he brought to the world.
