Condran, George Joseph, age 83, of Antigonish passed away on January 19, 2021, in St. Martha’s Regional Hospital, Antigonish.

Born in Dartmouth, growing up in Woodside, he was a son of the late Clifford and Agnes (Romo) Condran.

George is predeceased by his wife, Marie (Chisholm). He is survived by his children, Glen (Allison), Manotick, ON; Linda (Dave) Hubley, Carleton Place, ON; Cliff (Shelly Fletcher), Toronto, ON and Gary (Nancy Gardiner), Ottawa, ON; grandchildren, Erin, Jason, Amanda, Lauren, Hayden, Wesley, Georgia, and Garrison; great-grandchildren, Alden, Travis, Clara, Kenzie, Nathan, and Theo; siblings, Bernadette Beaver, Shirley Muzzerrall and Ken.

George’s career included working as the manager of the parts department at Cornwallis Motors in New Minas. He was known as the "go-to guy" whenever mechanics or do-it-your-selfers needed a part, regardless of the day or time of week.  He and his wife Marie raised their four children in Kentville. He built the family house through a development co-op with the Browns, MacNeils, Woodworths, and others; and he and Marie filled it with love. After moving to Antigonish, he was openly embraced by Marie’s family as one of their own. A man of faith, he has always been known for his gentleness and thoughtfulness for all around him, including the many great friends he and Marie made in the Valley and at the Antigonish Manor. He had a passion of listening to the country music greats, taking drives, going to Mother Webbs, watching nightly Jeopardy, and especially seeing his grandchildren and great-grandchildren grow.

The family would like to thank the doctors, nurses, and staff of St. Martha’s for the extraordinary care and compassion they provided Dad.

Cremation has taken place.  Funeral Mass will be held Friday at 1:00pm in St. Ninian Cathedral, Reverend Donald MacGillivray presiding.  Social distancing protocols are in place, and masks are mandatory.  The funeral will be recorded, and a link to the service will be available on the funeral home website later in the day.

Donations in memory may be made to either the Canadian Cancer Society or a charity of your choice.
