We, the family, regret to announce the sudden passing of Donald Allister MacRae after a brief illness in Cape Breton Regional Hospital on August 30, 2017. He was born July 18, 1954 in Sydney Mines to the late Allister and Florence MacRae.
Donald was fiercely independent while living under the umbrella of Community Housing for many years. He will be missed by his AA buddies as well as everyone else who knew him. A kind and modest man, he was always willing to lend a hand. Donald enjoyed his daily coffee from Tim’s.

He was predeceased by sisters, Beverly (Jimmie Gouthro), Miriam (David LeBlanc), and brother, Kenny (Marcella).
