Dr. Joseph Allan MacDougall (1944-2024)
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Dr. Joseph Allan MacDougall on April 9, 2024, at the Dr. Everett Chalmers Regional Hospital, due to complications following hip surgery. Born on November 29, 1944 in Saint John, NB, he was a son of the late Joseph and Mary (Mooney) MacDougall.
Joe completed his residency in Los Angeles and fulfilled a dream by moving his growing family to the Catholic mission of Silveira in Zimbabwe (Rhodesia) for two years and Malawi for one year. The family returned to Lincoln, NB, and established their homestead there. He practiced as a family physician in several communities in New Brunswick, including Fredericton, Harvey, St. Stephen and Oromocto. Joe had many unusual hobbies: writing essays, collecting various stray humans, watching classic movies, reading theology, and bagpiping. He was an active member of St. Francis of Assisi Church choir, and a member of the 5th Canadian Division Base Gagetown Pipes and Drums.
Surviving are his partner, Margaret; children, Colin MacDougall (Karen), of Kingston, ON, Stephanie Dolan (James) of Scarborough, Maine, Les MacDougall (Jenn) of Fort McMurray, AB and Ian MacDougall of Peterborough, ON; son-in-law, Michael Maines of Gray, Maine; daughter-in-law, Kim MacDougall of Peterborough, ON; grandchildren, Branna, Brogan, Bronis, Padraig, William, Michael, Rielle, Kieran, Keegan, Fiona, Rhodes and Lennin; siblings, Robert, Jack, Alan, Colin, Jane, Mary, Eileen, Ann, Elizabeth and Martha and virtually countless nieces and nephews.
In addition to his parents, Joe was predeceased by his children, Heather Maines and Stephen MacDougall; his brother, John Paul and his sister, Suzanne.
