- Obituary:
The death of Frederick "Fred" Douglas McIntosh, of Bath, occurred on April 16, 2020 at the Edmunston Regional Hospital. Born on October 23, 1953, he was the son of the late Douglas and Margaret (Davies) McIntosh. He was also predeceased by his father-in-law, Douglas Foran.
Fred is survived by his loving wife of 45 years, Nancy; three children- Fred McIntosh, Lance McIntosh (Deana), and Alisha Peterson (Curtis); 12 grandchildren, Brittney, Kearstyn, Madison, Noah, Hannah, Caitlyn, Finnian, Lochlan, Griffin, Aibhlinn, Delaney, and Eilidh; one sister- Lilyan Kenny (Bill); mother-in-law, Florence Foran; and several nieces and nephews.
Fred leaves behind a legacy of long haul truck driving that he was extremely proud of. As a driver for 40 plus years he has met many people who have so many cherished memories of him. The colleagues and professional drivers that he has met along the way, will miss his knowledge and humour greatly.
When not behind the wheel of his 18 wheeler, he enjoyed his time spent at home. As an avid reader, Fred was rarely without the latest novel from his favourite authors. He loved to watch his grandchildren grow and learn. And when time allowed he loved to sit down to a good game of crib or 45s. He was notorious for his blind 30 for 60, and making it! He also created many loving bonds with those whose were close to his family. He will be greatly missed as a loving husband, father, papa and friend.
There will be no public visitation at this time. A celebration of Fred's life will be held at a later date. Interment will be at the Wharton Cemetery in Upper Kent at a later date. For those who wish, memorial donations made to the Canadian Diabetes Association or NB Heart and Stroke Foundation would be appreciated. L.R. Giberson Funeral Directors, Florenceville-Bristol, NB, have been entrusted with the care and arrangements. (506)392-1115 www.gibersonfuneraldirectors.ca
