It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Brandon Keith McVay who has been called home to the Lord on Tuesday October 07, 2025. He was 33 years old and survived by his loving wife Amberly McVay and their children, Ronan, Nora, Malakhi, Gretalyn & Ayla. His parents Pamela McVay, Brian and LeAnn McVay. Siblings Bryan (Madaline) McVay, Amber Tennyson, Amanda (Addi) Alden, Haley (Lee) Wyman, Ashley (Seth) Holborow, Lexi McVay, Tyler McVay, Timmy Mort. Grandparents Sherry and Joe Rottenhaus and many many more who were privileged to know him.
Brandon was a man of faith, strength, and quiet generosity. He greeted life with warmth, always ready to lend his support to family, friends, and strangers alike. He loved sharing the gospel with people, loved music, loved to draw and paint, to travel, ride his motorcycle, and more than anything he loved being the head of his family and taking care of his children. Through those interests he touched many lives, built lasting friendships and pointed people to his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ through obeying the word of God with forgiveness.
He had a special gift for making others feel seen, heard, valued and inspired. Whether it was helping someone in need, bringing forth laughter to lift spirits, celebrating small victories — he made ordinary moments feel extraordinary. His faith, humor, and compassion were the basics of his character.
Though he is gone from our sight, his memory will forever live on in our hearts. We will remember his laughter, his strength, his hugs, his stories, and how he made every gathering richer just by being present.
Fly high you are deeply and forever loved.
