Robert James MacLellan

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the sudden passing of our dear son and brother Robert James MacLellan, age 58, on March 6th, 2017 at the QEII Hospital in Halifax. Born in Sydney on November 17, 1958, Bob was the son of Ellen Veronica MacLellan and the late Angus Jerome (Butch) MacLellan.

Bob was a member of the Carpenter’s Union Local 1325, Alberta. He was a true Cape Bretoner who travelled back and forth “out west” for the past 16 years.

Bob leaves to mourn his passing, his loving mother Ellen MacLellan, to whom he devoted his life completely. He is also survived by his sister and best friend Evelyn (Fred) O’Rourke, Westmount. Bob will also be sadly missed by sister-in-law, Calista MacLellan (John), Sydney Mines; niece, Cara MacLellan, Sydney; nephew, Jonathan MacLellan, Sydney Mines and great nephew, Iain MacLellan, Sydney.

Bob was predeceased by his father Butch in 1981, his brother, John in 2014, his maternal grandparents, Fred and Edna Francis and his paternal grandparents, Mary Catherine and John L. MacLellan.

There will be no visitation. A memorial mass will be celebrated at 4:15 p.m. on Saturday, March 11, 2017 at Holy Rosary Church, Westmount.
