Obituary of Bruce Muir

Reginald Bruce Muir, 68, Stellarton, passed away Saturday, November 15, 2025, in the Aberdeen Hospital, Palliative Care Unit, surrounded by his family.

Born in New Glasgow, he was a son of the late Claude and Mary Agnes (Martell) Muir. Raised in a tightknit family, Bruce lived a life defined by hard work and generosity.  A proud electrician, he could talk endlessly about his trade and was always the first to show up with a tool in hand. He cherished simple joys – Sunday breakfast at Linda and Hughie’s, trips and adventures with his grandchildren, and warm escapes to Mexico. His love for his family was evident in everything he did.
