It is with heavy hearts that we announce the death of James Alexander MacLean on July 28, 2015, in the Cape Breton Regional Hospital, Sydney.

He was known for his ability to use his hands; whether it is wood carving or restoring most anything. He made a career as mechanic, both mechanical and auto body. He enjoyed playing guitar and singing. His witty sense of humour always lit up a room. He will be missed by his many friends at the club.

Memorial donations to the Palliative Care unit of the Cape Breton Regional Hospital would be appreciated by the family.
