Edward Joseph McMillan

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Edward McMillan, special husband, fun-loving father and doting “Pappy”.

Ed passed away peacefully with his family ever so close to him, easing his transition from our embraces to the arms of his predeceased daughter Karen (age 3, 1960). He is also predeceased by his parents Guy and Genevieve McMillan, his infant sister Patricia, his brothers Hubert (2011) and Cecil (2012).

He is survived by his wife of 60 years Gloria, his 8 children: Jacqueline, Debra (Rick), Michael, Rachelle (William), Wayne (Shirley), Lisa, Clinton (Tammy) and Brenda (George). He is also survived by his 12 grandchildren who knew him as the best “Pappy” in the world: Thea, Kylie, Dallas, Kaitlyn, Leanne, Clayton,

Leah, Nicole, Javas, Joshua, Madison, and Jadah.

He is survived by his brothers: Art (Helen), Billy (Irene) and Lawrence.

Uncle Eddie will be missed by many nieces and nephews.

The family wishes to thank all those who cared for him over the last four months as he battled his cancer.

If desired donations may be made to Hospice Wellington who we cannot thank enough for the compassionate, thoughtful and gentle care shown to Ed and the family during his final days.

Friends will be received at the MacKinnon Family Funeral Home, 55 Mill Street East, Acton on Friday from 2-4 & 7-9 pm.

Friends are invited to meet the family at St. Joseph Patron of Canada Roman Catholic Church, 64 Church Street East, Acton on Saturday at eleven o’clock at which time the Funeral Mass will be celebrated by Father Robert Hėtu.
