MACDONALD, Ian Stirling - Peacefully passed away following a brief illness on June 25th, 2019.
Ian is survived by his wife of 63 years, Lillian and by his children Toni Day (Michael), Shari (Peter) and Scott (Lisa) as well as his sisters Mary Eden Bassett (John) and Laurie Rodger (Simeon); he was grandfather to Kai Fishleigh.
After a long career as reporter/editor at The Canadian Press news service, Ian enjoyed a quiet retirement tending to his ravine garden, feeding resident squirrels and birds, dog walking along the Bluffs, reading and time together with Lillian. He will be greatly missed.
At Ian’s request, there will be no viewing or funeral service. As promised, his ashes will be brought “home” to Nova Scotia. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to your local animal shelter or Cancer Society in Ian’s memory.
