Condolence From: Larry & Dianne McNulty
Condolence: Our heartfelt love and sympathy to Elaine, Malcolm and all of Lorne's family. How saddened we were to hear of his passing, but wonderful memories of friendship remain. As an SLH co-worker of Larry's for many years, Lorne's smile and easy grace will not be forgotten, nor our many gatherings as friends with Lorne, Elaine and Malcolm where laughter, music, and honour to God abounded. Take comfort in Jesus' words: "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies. Everyone who lives and believes in Me will never die." John 11:26 Love and prayers,
Larry & Dianne McNulty, Arnprior

Condolence From: Malcolm MacKinnon
Condolence: We were so sad to hear of Bruce's tragic and untimely passing. Having reconnected after many years I enjoyed our Facebook interaction and sharing family information and memories. I will always be grateful that it was Bruce who led me to visit our Uncle Webster's grave in England a couple of years ago as had he not I would not have known where to find him. To Don, Wayne, Elaine and Malcolm you have our deepest condolences. Perhaps we can one day use Bruce's inspiration to remain in touch with family.

Condolence From: Jim Sutherland
Condolence: I want to extend my deepest condolences to the family members of Lorne Bruce "Moose" MacKinnon and the many people whose lives he made happier and richer over the years. Moose and I met when we were room-mates at the French House at the U. of Guelph, away back in the fall semester of 1969. We shared a lot of time together on the road, taking off at little more than a moment's notice to such seemingly exotic locales as New Orleans, Miami, and Atlanta, for no better reason than wanting to go there. Moose was a masterful musician, able to play any instrument almost as soon as he picked it up, and blessed with perfect pitch--but also sometimes cursed with it, as when my piano needed a bit of tuning. He was the very best kind of friend--the kind that you meet with after an absence of 2 or 3 years, but when you do, you feel like you were hanging out together only yesterday. I will miss him immensely.

Condolence: As a brother in law to Bruce ,as I called him,I regret not having seen his boats.We live in latin American not making that easy.
Malcolm and Elaine will miss you.
I heard him play guitar and banjo and agree that he was good.
He knew all his parrots,both his own, and all others everywhere.He could handle them so well,they would not bite.
He travelled that busy ole 401 many many days without one accident.Im sure that Sears knew him as a very good driver.He had wanted to make an arctic truck run over frozen lakes....but I guess he figured that was alittle risky.
He was a fine guy and I ll miss not seeing him here again.
Thank you Bruce for your help to me when I needed it in 98,I will remember you.
Blessings in our God.Bob

Condolence From: Phil Stuart
Condolence: Sincere condolences to the MacKinnon family regarding the passing of Lorne.
"Moose" & I have been friends since Grade 4 at Lanor Public School in Toronto many years ago. We shared many incredible life experiences together from Alderwood Collegiate to the University of Guelph, to a trek to Afghanistan in 1970-71.
I will miss him terribly and wish I could have visited him on his boat one more time.
Rest in peace my very good friend.
