MacLean, Joseph Allan – It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Joseph “Allan” “Leggie” MacLean who passed away suddenly at his home on February 7, 2023 in Valley View Apartments, Middle Musquodoboit, where he had resided for years.
Allan was born in Cape Breton.
He will surely be missed by his neighbours who all spoke highly of him. He started his career at Bedford Institute of Oceanography and eventually drove a truck for his dad at Carleton MacLean Trucking. In later years, he worked for 20 years doing property maintenance, which he thoroughly enjoyed. Allan was mechanically inclined and was talented at repairing small engines. There is no better legacy than a laugh and Leggie was packed full of them. His quick wit and clever humour kept those in his presence laughing. Allan will be greatly missed by his immediate family who were there for him in his times of need.
Allan is survived by his loving mother, Madonna; siblings, Lorna, Buddy (Bonnie), David (Jennifer), Curtis (Diane), Norine (Vernon), Lindy (Terry), Brian, Robin (Lavare), Dennis (Troy) and Roy; as well as many nieces and nephews.
He was predeceased by his father, Carleton; brother, Christopher; sister, Wanda; sister-in-law, Donna.
The family would like to extend their greatest thanks to Constable Matheson for his compassion and understanding at this time.
Cremation has taken place under the direction of Arimathea Funeral Cooperative, Upper Musquodoboit.
A Celebration of Life for family and friends to honour our brother, Allan, will be held on Wednesday, February 22, from 7-9 p.m., in First United Church Hall, Musquodoboit Harbour. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to First United Church.
A private family burial will take place at a later date.
