- MCKEE, Ranald 1939 - 2023
The family announces with sorrow his peaceful passing while surrounded by loving family on February 7, 2023 at Extendicare, Timmins at the age of 83. Devoted husband of Vivian for 56 years, and loving father of Donna Pearson, Wayne McKee and Barbara McKee.
Proud grandfather of Brittney (Shawn) Waters, Jenna (Tyler) Witty, Lauren (Jack) Denommee, the late Jessica Fortier, and great-grandfather to Johnathan, Kelsey, Betty, Finn, Hayden, Hayley, Aden, Jacob, and Jackson.
Born in Restoule, he is predeceased by parents, James Alvin and Mary Jane ?Jennie? McKee. After his family relocated to Hamilton, Ontario, Ranald began his long and varied truck driving career. It was there that he met and married his beloved Vivian. Together, they eventually made their way to Northern Ontario, settling in Thornloe, where they raised their three children. Ranald continued his career as a truck driver there, working for Eplett?s Dairy at first, and then for Grant Transport/Miller Paving until his retirement. Although he was a hard worker and loved his job, God and family came first.
In his free time, he enjoyed travelling and visiting with family and friends, working on his hobby farm, cutting, splitting and piling many cords of wood, swimming, and playing aggravation. He had a great sense of humor, and could strike up a conversation with anyone anywhere. Ranald was a humble, honest, principled, and God-fearing man, daily reading his Bible, and faithfully striving to follow the teachings of Jesus. He will be remembered as a man of integrity, and a pillar to many. We will forever cherish the time spent with Ranald, and his presence will be sorely missed by all those fortunate enough to have known him.
The family wishes to thank the staff at Extendicare, Timmins, for their exceptional kindness and support during his last months there.
