We Remember

MCKENZIE, Stanley Gordon

July 27, 1932 — February 26, 2025

After a short hospital stay, Stan passed away on February 26, 2025. He is survived by his three sons, Doug, Glen (Karen), Gordon (Susan); grandson Collin (Sylvie); as well as his brother George (Julia) and extended family. He will be lovingly remembered by his family and many friends. Stan was predeceased by his wife Margaret (Peggy) and his brother Harry.

Stan was born and raised on the family farm in Winnipeg Beach, then moved to Winnipeg to pursue a career in accounting, becoming a Chartered Accountant in 1963. He took a role with the Canada Revenue Agency to gain some tax experience.  He worked for the agency in Winnipeg, then Ottawa, back in Winnipeg, and finally in Vancouver, retiring in 1992.

Stan spent his retirement years travelling with Peggy in their motorhome, tinkering around his house and helping his sons with whatever they needed. He volunteered for the Retired Federal Superannuates, holding the position of Treasurer for a time.

The family would like to express thanks to the staff of Kelowna General Hospital for the care provided in his last weeks, as well as the staff of Summerwood Retirement Resort for their friendship and concern for Stan. In accordance with his wishes, cremation has already taken place and there will be a private service for immediate family.
