Gregory ‘Bryce’ McKay

Our son Gregory “Bryce” McKay, at the age of 32 passed away on Monday, July 17, 2023, of leukemia. 

Bryce was born July 18, 1990, in Bellingham, to parents Greg and Jennifer (Jerowski) McKay. Bryce lived his life to the fullest. He enjoyed traveling, concerts, golf, and professional sporting events. He was known for his wit, for being sarcastic and his thoughtfulness, and always seeing the best in people. For him every day was a bucket list day, he was comfortable being uncomfortable, and to know him was to laugh.

Bryce was an amazing uncle with a gentle, generous soul. He excelled in sales for Western Boxed Meats. 

Bryce is survived by his parents Greg and Jennifer McKay, brothers Garrett and wife McKinna and Grant and wife Darah, nieces and nephews Lily, Jett, Charlotte, Waylon and Wyatt; grandparents Pat Jerowski and Ron and Penny McKay, and sweet dog Larry. 

Bryce joins in heaven his grandpa Jerry Jerowski, cousin Hannah Dashiell, uncle Brian McKay and a host of other loved ones.

He will be greatly missed. Bryce had a generous heart of giving to others in need. In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to your favorite charity, such as Samaritan’s Purse or a GoFundMe to benefit a cancer patient battling A.M.L.  

Bryce, cancer may have taken you, but you are not gone. You will always be with us … the gentle whisper in our ears, the touch of the soft breeze upon our skin, and the sunlight on our face.
