Ledson Burton McLean
January 29, 1946 – December 11, 2025
With deep sorrow and great respect, we announce the passing of Ledson Burton McLean on December 11, 2025, a man whose life was defined by devotion, resilience, and unwavering love for his family.
Ledson was the devoted husband of the late Katie McLean (2016), with whom he shared a life built on loyalty and partnership. He was a proud and loving father to Vicki Shaw (Jason Martin) and James McLean, and an extraordinarily proud grandpa to his beloved grandson, Logan. Time spent with Logan was Ledson’s greatest joy, and the bond they shared was one of laughter, guidance, and unconditional love.
Predeceased by siblings John, Virginia, Ronald, Richard, Peggy, Doris. He is survived by his siblings Jake, Ken, and Barb, along with many nieces and nephews who will carry forward his stories, strength, and spirit. Ledson will also be deeply missed by his many friends and by his faithful companion, Sheamus, who rarely left his side.
A Vietnam War veteran, Ledson served his country with honor and quiet pride. After returning home, he built a long and dedicated career with the Ford Motor Company, where his strong work ethic and reliability earned the respect of all who worked alongside him. Upon retirement, he embraced life’s simpler pleasures — good food (especially cheeseburgers), good company, and time well spent with the people he loved most.
Late of Harrow, Ontario, Ledson was known as a man of substance and sincerity — steady, dependable, and deeply loyal. He didn’t seek attention, but his presence was felt. His legacy lives on in the family he loved fiercely, the values he lived by, and the memories that will continue to be shared around tables, in laughter, and in quiet moments of reflection.
Ledson Burton McLean will be remembered not only for the life he lived, but for the lives he touched, the sacrifices he made, and the love he gave so freely.
