MACDONALD, Alastair
Bruce (Big Red or Mac):
Alastair passed away suddenly of undiagnosed heart disease on Saturday, July 23, 2022, in Blenheim. He was the much-loved father of Cameron and Sophie, and loved brother of Heather, Liz ( Rhode Island) and Stuart (Queensland) and their families in both Australia and Ireland. He was loved
by cousins he had recently reconnected with on his travels and those, in Blenheim, who he was with recently. He was an avid fisherman, a lover of adventure and a good friend to many. Messages may be sent to c/- 9 Sutherland Ave, Trentham, Upper Hutt 5019 or via email to [email protected]. A memorial service to celebrate his life will be held in late October/early November in the south.

Saddened learn of Alistairs passing. His love of the outdoors inspired many of his students. His ability to remember names after the first meeting was incredible. Many happy experiences at Borland My deepest sympathy.
