Don is predeceased by his parents Alexander and Rosa and by his brothers Leo, Alexander, Angus, Ronald, Allan, Jack and Colin and two nephews. Don is survived by 28 nieces and nephews. Don was born in Saskatoon on June 23, 1924. He attended St. Paul's School, City Park Collegiate, St. Peter's College in Muenster and St. Peter's Seminary in London, Ontario. He was ordained to the priesthood at St. Paul's Cathedral by Most Rev. Philip Francis Pocock on May 18, 1950. He was named Monsignor on August 21, 2005. He served at St. Paul's Cathedral, St. Alphonse, Viscount and St. Philip Neri in Saskatoon. He was a member of the missionary team Bishop Francis Klein sent to Maria Magdalena Parish in dos Palmares in Alagoas, Brazil in 1964. He served the people of that parish for 38 years. Brazil was Don's home until his health necessitated his return to Saskatoon in 2002. The Diocese of Saskatoon and the Macgillivray family greatly appreciated the loving care that Don received from the Oblate community and the staff at Mazenod. Don was truly a pastor in every sense of the word. He endeared himself to the hearts of the people. His ministry always recognized the needs of the poor, the oppressed and the suffering. He was one with the people. The Vigil of Prayer will be celebrated at St. Paul's Cathedral at 7:00 p.m. on Friday, June 20th. The Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated at St. Paul's Cathedral on Saturday, June 21st at 10:00 a.m. In the absence of Bishop Albert LeGatt, Fr.

Prayer for All the Deceased
By Thy resurrection from the dead, O Christ, death no longer hath dominion over those who die in holiness. So, we beseech Thee, give rest to Thy servants in Thy sanctuary and in Abraham's bosom. Grant it to those, who from Adam until now have adored Thee with purity, to our fathers and brothers, to our kinsmen and friends, to all men who have lived by faith and passed on their road to Thee, by a thousand ways, and in all conditions, and make them worthy of the heavenly kingdom.
Eternal rest, grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May the souls of the faithful departed through the mercy of God rest in peace. Amen. |Letter of St. James|
