Obituary of Edward P. MacLachlan

Edward "Possum" MacLachlan passed the way that he lived, in his home, peacefully and lovingly surrounded by his six children on October 31, 2021. The pillars of his persona - kindness, generosity, humor and humility will continue on through the lives of those he loved most - his children, his siblings and his grandkids. Ed embodied hard work, integrity and faithfulness, together setting the stone of his life's work as a union bricklayer and the many relationships he crafted as well. A private service will be held at Shephard Settlement Cemetery, close to his family's homestead - the place that laid the foundation for the neighbor, father, brother, and friend we all loved. The family is planning a Celebration of Ed's Life in the spring. In lieu of flowers, do as Ed would do - grow your own.
