It is with broken hearts that the family of Brian Ferguson announces his death after a short, but courageous battle with cancer at the North Bay Regional Health Centre on Monday July 24th, 2023 at the age of 59.
Loving husband of Marion (nee McLeod). Beloved son of William and Deanna (nee Brown). He will forever be remembered by his siblings, Sarah (Shawn), Brent (Carla) and Blair (friend Lita). He was the proud uncle of Christopher, Devan, Katie, Michael, Ian, Avery and Emily. He will be sadly missed by his great nephew Stryder and great nieces Mila and McKinley, his uncles Ray, Donald and David along with his cousins Andrew, Joel, Derek, Patricia, Melinda and Jamey.
Brian was a well-known timekeeper at Memorial Gardens and the Double Rinks. He worked for the North Bay Nugget delivering the newspaper and was a crossing guard for many years. Everyone who had the privilege to know him will never forget his smiling face and how he saw the bright side of every situation. He will be fondly missed by all.
Family receiving friends at HILLSIDE FUNERAL SERVICES, 362 Airport Rd on Friday July 28th, 2023 from 2pm until 4pm. Internment of ashes will be held at a later date in Carleton Place.
In lieu of flowers, donations to the Near North Palliative Care Network in memory of Brian will be gratefully acknowledged by his family.
Special thanks to Dr. Hailey Moore and Dr. Bailey Steele for the care and compassion given to Brian. The Ferguson family invite you for light refreshments following the visitation to be held at Bill and Deanna’s.
