Lyle McKay

Lyle McKay passed away peacefully with family by his side on June 29, 2023, at the Neepawa District Hospital at the age of 80.

Lyle was born in Carman Memorial Hospital on December 11, 1942, the sixth of seven children to James and Hazel McKay.

He was raised on the family farm at Elm Creek Manitoba where he attended school, was active in 4-H and sports.

Lyle came to Glenella District in 1965 to farm where he met Barbara Mossa who he married on October 14, 1967, at the Glenella United Church. Lyle and Barbara continued to grow the farm where they raised their four boys Howard, Mervin, Ian and Darren.

As the family grew so did the farm. Lyle had a passion for raising animals and over the years pigs, chickens, horses and cattle grazed the land.

Family and friends were very important to Lyle. Being born a cattleman, his love of the Charolais breed was almost equally important to him. He may have been guilty of checking on the cows before the boys once or twice.

He was a part of the Canadian Charolais Association for 40+ years, sat on the board of the Douglas Bull Test Station and proudly raised a strong herd with impressive, sought after genetics.

Retirement was not a word in Lyle’s vocabulary but unfortunately his health forced him to slow down and delegate more to the boys in recent years.

Lyle is predeceased by his parent James and Hazel McKay, sisters Dorothy and Frances, brother Gordon “Buddy” (Irene), his father in law and mother in law Bill and Hettie Mossa, his brother in laws Ron and Bill and his sister in law Eleanor (Ken, Bob).

Left to mourn are his wife Barbara and their four sons Howard (Kay), Mervin, Ian (Ruth), Darren (Jody), grandchildren James (Jenna), Christopher (Rebecca), Matthew, Katelyn (Sam), Ava, Wayne, and Cyver, sisters Irene and Hazel, brother Don (Dorothy), brother in laws Conrad and Barry and many nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.

Funeral Service for Lyle will be held on Saturday July 22, 2023 at 2pm at the Glenella Hall, in Glenella, MB.
