DJ was born in Orangedale East on February 2, 1943 he was a son of the late Ross and Margaret (MacDonald) MacPherson. DJ was happy and would be there for anyone, at anytime. He worked at various jobs. DJ enjoyed nothing more than a good game of auction. And watch out if he was losing the game on Saturday night at his sister, Edna’s house. He enjoyed nothing more than a good conversation of politics, and if you weren’t talking about the Liberal party forget it, he wasn’t chatting politics.
