Alexander Angus MacDonald, 75, born in Forrest Hill, PEI, peacefully passed on Tuesday, May 23, 2023 at Huronview in Clinton, Ontario.
Waiting to be reunited with him in heaven is his beloved wife, Waneta (Sanderson) MacDonald.
He will be greatly missed and loved by his three children, Denise (Chris), Deana (Greg), and Douglas.
A special Papa to his grandchildren, Haley, Danica (Nick), Shaman, Sebastian, Tyler, Nolan and Kadence and great-grandson Elliot.
Fondly remembered sadly missed by his brothers and sisters, Cy (Debby), Lloyd (predeceased) (Audrey), Shirley (Reggie), Sterling (Carolyn), Karen (Gordon), and Keith (Tanya).
Missing him also will be many nieces and nephews, his extended Sanderson family, numerous cousins and friends.
Predeceased by his parents Douglas and Annie MacDonald.
Alex spent every moment of his free time with his passions from playing ball, Sunday morning hockey games, spending time with the many life long friendships he made along the way and the daily visits from all the four-legged friends out at Pinelake Campground who came to get their share of treats from him.
You could always find him refurbishing his Farmall tractors and even more proudly displaying his efforts in various parades or as a member of the Huron Pioneer Threshers & Hobby Association’s annual gathering or simply taking the neighbourhood kids for rides behind his tractors.
As per Alex’s wishes there will be no funeral visitation, there will be a graveside service with his family and friends at the Maitland Cemetery on Monday, May 29th at 2:30 pm.
In lieu of flowers, donations to the Dundas Plowing Match, the Humane Society, and the Huron Pioneer Threshers & Hobby Association are greatly acknowledged.

A wonderful and kind man…..we had visits from and with him at Pine Lake.
He loved our little guy Riley and Riley loved to visit him (not just for the treats) he had a real way with dogs. I’m sure Riley was there at the Pearly Gates to welcome his friend too.
Rest easy Alex, I know you will with your darling wife once again by your side. We still think and talk about you.

So sorry to hear of Alex passing. We have lots of great memories in our years in Goderich with your Dad.
Our thoughts are with you during this time, but just remember all the good memories he has shared with everyone.
