MALCOLM KEITH MCGREGOR

July 14, 1930 - October 9, 2025

Keith passed away with family by his side at Poseidon Care Centre.

He was predeceased by his wife Doreen and daughter Maureen. He is survived by his sons, Bruce, Warren Bates (Maureen), Doug (Karen), and Scott. As well as four grandchildren, Kate (Paul Carter), Lauren Bates (Adam Zabrodski), Cameron, and Charlotte; and his great-grandchildren, Max Zabrodski, Sydney and Perrin Carter.

Dad grew up in St. Vital with his older brother Laurie, attending Glenlawn Collegiate and United College. During the 1950 flood his family left their home and were taken in by their friends the Mulhollands. Dad and their daughter eventually began to date. On August 23, 1952, six days after Doreen's 22nd birthday, they were married at St. Paul's United Church.

They had their first two children, Bruce and Maureen, in Winnipeg. After the birth of Doug, the family moved to Calgary for two years for an employment opportunity. In 1967, came another opportunity, and the family moved to Ottawa, where Scott was born.

Upon the passing of his father, Dad began to work with his brother at Finmac Lumber. In 1973, the family returned to Winnipeg, settling in Riverview. Dad was a family man and a great provider.

In later years, Scott lived with Mom and Dad. This allowed Dad to remain in their home until just before his 93rd birthday. Our parents were fortunate to have Scott's dedicated help.

The family would like to thank the staff of Poseidon Care Centre for their compassionate care, as well as the staff at the Grace and Dr. J Brian Sharkey in particular.

Dad, you are suffering no longer and had a life well-lived with a family who loved you.
