GERALD ROBERT MACKAY
1930 - 2022
Peacefully on Saturday, January 22, 2022 in Brandon, MB, Gerry MacKay passed away at the Brandon Regional Health Centre at the age of 91.
Born on the farm at Kenton, Manitoba on February 19, 1930, he was one of four children born to Glendon "Curly" and Agnes (Barr) MacKay. He was predeceased by siblings, Darcy MacKay and Lois Duffield. The youngest of the four, Loree Hays still resides in Victoria, BC.
The MacKay family moved briefly to Shoal Lake from Kenton before moving to Brandon in 1946 when Curly purchased what was then known as Brandon Harness Ltd., later to become Curly MacKay & Sons Sporting Goods.

He is survived by his three children, Gary, Gordon and Lisa and their families.
