MAHONEY, Michael Edward - With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Michael Edward Mahoney, 83, on January 23, 2026, at the VG Hospital in Halifax. A man who embraced life with energy and a quick wit, Michael was happiest when surrounded by his family or pursuing his passions on the water and the slopes.

A proud graduate of Saint Mary’s University, Michael built a respected career in the insurance industry. Beyond the office, he was a true outdoorsman. He was a longtime member of the Ski Wentworth Club, a passion he joyfully passed down to his children. His love for the water - whether "in, on, or under - led him to active memberships at the Grand Lake and Armdale Yacht Clubs. Michael had a gift for conversation and never passed up the opportunity to share a good joke.

Michael was predeceased by his son, Christopher Michael, and his parents, Ed and Patricia Mahoney. He leaves behind his devoted wife, Donna (MacIntyre); his children, Graeme (Jenna) and Jennifer (Steven); and the grandchildren he absolutely adored: Addilyn, Carly, and Lauchlin. He is also survived by his sisters, Linda (the late David Rent) and Joan (James MacCormack), along with many beloved nieces and nephews.

Following cremation, Michael will be laid to rest with his son. Family and friends are invited to share stories and laughter—just as Michael would have wanted—at a Celebration of Life on February 9th, from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM at the Enfield Legion, 50 Legion Rd, Enfield.
