Samuel Gray MacKenzie

Samuel Gray MacKenzie, Jr. was stillborn to his parents Gray and Julie MacKenzie on Tuesday, June 9, 2026. Julie and Gray, along with Samuel’s sisters and brothers (Laurel, Bennett, Holly, and Miles), and his living grandparents (Bob and Robin MacKenzie, Connie Utz) were able to hold him and spend sweet time with him at the hospital.

Though Samuel’s life was lived completely in the womb, he brought so much joy to his family and taught them so much. Samuel was loved beyond measure, and the family rejoices that because of Christ they will spend eternity worshipping God with him.

1 Thessalonians 4:13-18

A memorial service to honor Samuel’s life will take place at Advance Community Church in Mars at 6:00 PM on Saturday, June 13, 2026.
