Obituary of Bev Mackey

After a hard fought courageous battle, Bev passed away peacefully at L.H.S.C-University Hospital on April 20th. Honouring his memory is the love of his life and best friend, his wife Lois. His daughter Anne (Tim) and son Scott (Angie) are privileged to call him Dad. Grandchildren Kent and Brett Hanna, and Cameron, Lauryn and Isaac Mackey adore their Grandpa. Dear brother of his sisters Karen (Larry) and Trudy. Remembering him are his brother and sisters in-law Bruce and Barb Fonger and Mary Fonger. Bev’s nieces and nephews will miss him. Bev loved sports. If he wasn’t playing or coaching, he was a fan. The Toronto Maple Leafs is his team, even though he was drafted by the Chicago Blackhawks. Bev worked 45 ½ years with Superior Propane, where his customers weren’t just customers to Bev, he considered them friends.
