ARCHIE DUNCAN MACDONELL
We regret to announce the passing of our brother Archie Duncan "AD" MacDonell. Archie passed away on Monday, April 16th, 2018, in Coleman Health Centre ,Barrie, Ontario. He entered this world a child of God and left as an angel to the open arms of the Lord and our family above.
Our prayers and Mom’s unending love, granted our wishes of a peaceful passing. His home was Coleman, and his life was blessed with care and love from the support staff, doctors and all those that played a special part in Archie’s life. Anytime you would call Coleman and ask, “How’s Archie doing?”, they would reply, “he’s the same old Archie. He’s easy going, happy and he brightens our day.”
Archie had Wayne’s love for music, Mom’s warmth and love of holding hands, Dad’s hands and nose, and like all of his siblings, he was a touch stubborn and mischievousness which was reflected in his common response, “stop that.” He’s a weaver.
We’re comforted in knowing that he’ll rest with Mom and Dad now and forever, which is where they always wanted him; home by their side.
Archie was predeceased by his parents, Angus and Margie; brother, Wayne; sister, Marcey; and sister-in-law, Anne. He is survived by his sister, Diane Beaton (Charlie); brothers, Gary (Valerie), David (Sheila), Glen (Annette), Ronnie (Lori); brother-in law, Scott Cameron and all his loving nieces, nephews and grand-nieces and nephews.
Archie will be resting in Port Hood and Area Resting Place for a family viewing on Sunday, April 22nd from 2-4 p.m. Funeral Mass will be held in Saint Joseph’s Church, Glencoe Mills on Monday April 23rd at 11a.m . Close family friend, Father Dan MacDonald officiating. Burial will take place in Port Hood Cemetery at a later date. Family flowers only. Donations can be made to the Port Hood Cemetery Fund.
