Gregory “Greg” John MacKay, 69, passed away Friday, January 7, 2022, at his Sylvania Township home. Greg was a workaholic and worked until his last day on earth. He was a fantastic builder, handyman, and carpenter that built his own house. The products he created were always made with love and often given to family and friends. Greg was an avid hunter and fisher. Trophies from his hunts hung proudly in his home. Greg’s humor and jokes were legendary and made everyone cringe but most importantly laugh. Greg will be missed for all the years to come.
He is survived by his wife of 35 years, Nancy Raines; sons, Hallis Dudley MacKay, Jason Gregory MacKay and Andrew James MacKay; and daughter, Ashley Caroline MacKay (Jasper) Simonds; brother, James David MacKay; and grandchildren, Summer, Aiden, and Sophia. He was preceded in death by his parents, John Howard and Geraldine Arlene (Sahloff) MacKay; sister, Betty Arlene (MacKay) Smith; and brother-in-law, James Kenneth Smith.
Memorial services will be conducted at the Reeb Funeral Home, Sylvania, Thursday, January 13th at 12:00 p.m., were family and friends may gather two hours prior.
In lieu of flowers, tributes to the family would be appreciated.
