Additional Info:Donald was a wonderful man who was highly devoted to his family. He was a Extraordinary Minister of the Eucharist for many years in St. Peter's Church. He brought Holy Communion to the housebound of the parish as well as to Uist House, the local care home. He was always about helping the community, whether it be with crofting paperwork or with helping them look after their sheep. Donald took ill during 2013 and never fully recovered, but he suffered his illness with humility and dignity, never complaining. Fr. Michael MacDonald from the neighbouring parish of Eochar & Bornish concelebrated at the Requiem Mass and Deacon Martin Matheson also participated. Donald will be greatly missed. May he rest in peace.
