Sydney
It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden passing of Lawrence Stephen MacDonald on Tuesday, March 10, 2020 at the Cape Breton Regional Hospital, Sydney.
Born on July 25, 1966 in Sydney, Lawrence was the son of the late Bernie and Jean MacDonald.

Lawrence, known as the car guy, could always be found tinkering with cars, be it in the garage, driveway or someone else’s yard. Steven would bring him a fifty dollars car and Lawrence could turn it into a million-dollar K-car for him.
