Ellice McDonald Jr.

I met Mr. McDonald through Clan Donald, at the Grandfather Mountain Games. A fine gentleman. I recently saw his name as a supporter of the Mises Institute in Auburn, AL. I'm sure he would be very concerned about the recent situation at Armadale and Sleat.

Kindly remembered as a fine and interesting Gentleman.

I did not have the privilege of meeting Mr. McDonald, but heard much of his passion, generosity and legacy as I became more involved in the efforts of Clan Donald USA, where I serve as a chaplain. My prayers are with his family and friends at his passing.

I would like to add my condolences for the death of Ellice McDonald. I only met him two or three times and then only briefly. but my father, Air Vice Marshal Calum Macdonald, always spoke very highly of Ellice and his hard work and ongoing support of the Clan Donald Trust. He will be sorely missed.

Mrs. Mcdonald, for her petite stature, was as tough as nails and Mr. McDonald had a great sense of humor.

Rosa never forgot our wedding anniversary. We would receive beautiful flowers to help us celebrate every year.

Ellice and Rosa McDonald, through their generosity, foresight and thoughtfulness, had an extraordinarily beneficial effect not only on Clan Donald USA and the Clan Donald Lands Trust, but also on Clan Donald as a whole and many Highland organisations. My late husband and I regarded them as dear friends and they influenced me in particular as to what could be possible. Both Ellice and Rosa left an indelible mark on Clan Donald and on many individuals, for which we should all be grateful. I...

I was so sorry to hear about the loss of Mr. McDonald. I remember him well. I am also very sorry to hear about the loss of Mrs. McDonald and Rosa. I was unaware of their passing. I have such fond memories of your family and the time our family spent at the Bridge House. Your parents always treated our family very well, and Mr. McDonald was a true friend to my father, Harry. After my father's death, Mr. McDonald helped my mother take care of her affairs and always took the time to advise her...
