It is with a 'broken heart' that we announce the sudden passing of Gerard Xavier MacKenzie on Friday, April 22, 2011, at the Cape Breton Regional Hospital surrounded by his loving family. Gerard was an honorable and loving man known to all of us a - husband, father, son, brother, uncle and friend.
Born in Sydney, he was the son of Catherine (Mac Farlane) MacKenzie and the late Francis MacKenzie. Memories of Gerard will be forever cherished by his wife and best friend of 22 years Mary Elaine (Mac Neil); and their two children of whom he was so proud, his 'princess' Breanne and 'his boy'- his son Christopher, both at home. He is also survived by his brothers, Joseph, Hector (Meryl); sisters, Anne (Elmer) Syms and Mary (Peter) Bren; and sister-in-law, Lorene MacKenzie. Also left to mourn are his mother-in-law, Mary Mac Neil; brothers-in-law, Adrian (Bell), Paul, Sydney, and Kevin and sister-in-law, Sheila (Doug) Nicholson, Alberta. Gerard is also survived by numerous nieces and nephews as
well as grandnieces and grandnephews.
Gerard was predeceased by his father, Francis MacKenzie, brother, Robert (Bob) MacKenzie, and father-in-law, Reginald Mac Neil. Gerard graduated from Sydney Academy, St. Francis Xavier University, and the University of New Brunswick from which he obtained a Bachelor of Laws degree in 1987. Gerard began his practice with David L. Parsons Law Inc. where he remained until opening his own practice in November of 2009. Gerard, an unassuming man, will always be remembered for his quick wit, sense of humour, integrity, and his loyalty to friends and his devotion to family. Gerard was an active member of Immaculate Heart of Mary/St. Joseph's parish and served on various councils and on numerous boards within his community.
Besides being an exceptional lawyer, Gerard took great pleasure in bringing family and friends together for his favourite holidays - Christmas and Easter. He always made sure, while playing Santa at his famous Christmas parties, that there was a gift for everyone. The "big guy" will be missed by all who loved him - family, longtime friends, clients, and colleagues.
Visitation for Gerard will be held from 2-4 and 7-9 p.m. Tuesday, April 26 at T.W. Curry Funeral Home, 755 George St., Sydney, N.S.
Funeral Mass will be celebrated at 2 p.m. Wednesday, April 27 at St. Theresa's Church with Fr. Jim Oliver, Fr. Conrad Edwards, and Fr. Bill Crispo concelebrating. Interment will follow at Resurrection
Cemetery, Sydney Forks, immediately following the Eucharistic celebration.
