MacGill; maternal grandparents, Scott and Jackie (Eiswerth) Harris; uncle, Jeff (Kim) MacGill all of Nisbet and uncle, Heath (Wendy) Harris of Selinsgrove, as well as his furry best friends, cats Getaway, Oreo, and Buttercup.
He was preceded in death by his father, Michael J MacGill, grandfather Clyde E. MacGill, uncle John E. MacGill, and by his canine best friends, Buster I, Buster II, and Buster III.
