McRAE, Wayne Michael
December 8th, 1948 - December 3rd, 2022
Wayne Michael McRae passed away peacefully on Saturday, December 3rd, 2022, surrounded by the love of his children. Loving husband of the late Elizabeth "Betty" McRae (2022). Dearly loved father of Tammy (Gary) Zalepa, Tricia (Darren) Johnston, Carrie (Dave) Santo, Michael McRae, and Megan McRae. Dear grandfather of Nathan, Benjamin, Tyler, Olivia, and Frankie. Predeceased by his parents Earl and Edith McRae. Caring brother of Lorrie Carr (the late Bruce Scott), Marty (Lori) McRae and the late Terry (Janice) McRae. He will be sadly missed by his extended family of in-laws, nieces, nephews, and friends.
Wayne began his career in 1967 at Acres International which later became Hatch Engineering, until his retirement in 2008. He was an avid sports enthusiast, as both a player and coach of slo-pitch in the region and a life long fan of the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Toronto Blue Jays. Wayne will be fondly remembered for his sense of humour and infectious laugh.
