Hugh Macdonald
HUGH MacDONALD It is with deepest sorrow that we announce the passing of our father on January 23, 2001, surrounded by family, after a brief but courageous battle with cancer. He is lovingly remembered by his children, Laurie (Rob), Brian (Kathy), and Rob (Cheryl) and the grandchildren
he cherished, Chantal, Kristen, and Brandon. Also left to mourn are his brothers Alistair of Vancouver and Chuck of Edmonton and numerous nieces and nephews, relatives and friends. Hugh was born
in Fort Rouge, the youngest of three sons, on June 29, 1925. He was proud to be a Winnipegger all his life and a railway man for 33 years. Dad took pride in his Scottish heritage and much joy in spending time with family, not only on special occasions, but every day and in every way. He was very active in the community, especially at Sir John Franklin C.C. where he passed on his love of sports as a coach and volunteer. He enjoyed his curling and will be missed by his friends at the Granite C.C., but Dad's passion was baseball and he loved attending games at home and abroad. In the late 1940's he reached for a dream by trying out for pro baseball in the States. In his later years, Dad enjoyed travel abroad and Christmases in London, Ontario. He had just completed an enjoyable trip to Japan when he became ill. Dad loved a good debate, reading, going on daily walks, and being with his family. Thanks to Rob Dailley for his TLC with Dad during his illness. Cremation has taken place and there will be a celebration of Hugh's life at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, January 27th in the Thomson Funeral Chapels, 669 Broadway.

James Mckinnon
JAMES DONALD McKINNON It is with deep sadness that we announce the sudden passing of our deeply beloved son, father, brother and nephew, Jim McKinnon, in a tragic accident at Brooks, Alta., on Friday, January 19, 2001. Jim will always be lovingly remembered and sadly missed by his three children, Nicholas, Ashley and Justin; his parents Jane and Rixon McKinnon; his sister Brenda (Darcy); aunts and uncles, Louise Proven, Lionel (June) McKinnon, Betty (Curt) Johnson and many cousins and numerous friends.

on December 15, 1963, at Holy Cross Hospital in Calgary, Alta. When Jim was a year and a half old, he moved with his parents to a farm near Rapid City, Man. Jim enjoyed the farm life and the companionship of his younger brother and sister. As a youth, Jim was involved in 4-H, hockey, curling, and expressed his love of music in the junior choir at Cadurcis as a member of the United Church. Jim went to school at Rapid City and later at Minnedosa Collegiate where he made many close friends that have lasted a lifetime. After graduation from high school Jim attained his machinist certificate at Assiniboine Community College in Brandon. In 1986 Jim married Marion Northam and in 1987 they moved to Calgary, Alta. While in Calgary, Jim pursued his career as a journeyman machinist and they were blessed with three children. In 1999 Jim moved back to Minnedosa. He became a scout leader and was looking forward to returning as a leader. In 2000 Jim joined the Masonic Lodge, an organization that he truly respected and that his father was already a member of. Jim will always be remembered for his work ethic, quick smile and sense of humour. He had many close friends that truly valued their friendship with him. He was, however, at his greatest level of enjoyment when he was surrounded by his children. The funeral will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Thursday, January 25, at the United Church in Minnedosa with Pastor Kathy Platt officiating. Active pallbearers were John Gordon, Mike Grant, Jack Orr, Colin McTavish, Ed Hinsburg and Pat Ritchie.
