Age 54, of Terence Bay, passed away November 10, 2019, at the Victoria General Hospital. Born in Halifax, he was the son of Alvin and Judy MacDonald. He worked for the family-owned business, Alvin MacDonald Trucking and Excavation Ltd., for 32 years.

He was predeceased by his mother, Judy. A very special thank you to all the dialysis nurses, transplant coordinators, and nephrology doctors, who were like a second family to him.
