With fond memories and heavy hearts the family announces the passing of our loving Husband, Father, Grandfathe­r, Great-grandfathe­r, Brother and Friend, Bruce Mcconnell. Bruce is survived by his loving wife of almost 59 years, June, his 3 children Wayne Mcconnell (Madelyn) and their children Adam (Alysha) and children Jace, Wyatt and Averi of Winnipeg. Jenelle (Braden Malak) and children Finnegan and Chloe of Kenora, Ontario, and Jordan of Winnipeg, Manitoba. Lyle Mcconnell (Lorri) and their 2 sons Parker and Logan all of Edmonton, Alberta. Beth Mcconnell (Darcy Brychun) and their children Kelsey, Brayden and Nevada, all of Saskatoon, SK. Bruce started farming at an early age with his siblings Cliff and Jerry and was passionate of the trade. In later years he worked for the Telephone Company and Department of Highways for a short stint but returned to farming full time. Bruce loved to play ball, hunt, fish, dance and in later years attend country Jamborees. The family would like to extend special thanks to the staff at Kensington Gentle Care Home, and the numerous friends and neighbours who visited Dad during his stay at the Saskatoon private care home. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the charity of your choice. Due to Covid19 restrictio­ns a private family service will be held in Biggar with procession­al to follow laying Dad to rest at Crane Creek Cemetery. We welcome those who want to join us at the cemetery for the burial, with safe distancing coffee service to follow in the church.
