Victor Claude McGill, a devoted husband, father, and lifelong resident of Sumner, MI, passed away on March 26, 2025, at the age of 78.
Born on December 7, 1946, Vic lived a life filled with hard work, dedication, and a strong sense of pride. As a hard-working owner of a trucking company, he spent many years building a successful business, earning a reputation for his reliability and strong work ethic. Vic earned the respect of his employers, coworkers, fellow truck drivers, and the community through his tireless work and commitment to excellence.
Vic's love for the outdoors was evident in his beautifully maintained lawn and the gardens he lovingly tended to with his wife, Connie. Together, they created a beautiful home that they enjoyed endlessly, filling it with love, laughter, and countless memories.
Vic was known for his passion for cutting firewood, and his motto was simple: the bigger the load, the better. He took great pride in loading his truck to capacity and beyond.
But above all, Vic was a dedicated and proud family man. He loved his wife, Connie, and their family with all his heart, and he took great pride in their accomplishments. His humble nature and kind spirit earned him the respect and admiration of everyone who knew him.
Throughout his life, Vic always strived to be the best at whatever job was at hand. He had a quiet, respectful competitiveness about him, which is evident in his many success stories and the respect of those who knew him.
Vic is survived by his son, Jerry McGill of Sumner, MI; his daughter, Ronda McGill of Sumner, MI; grandchildren: Patrick and Kimberly Rossman, Nick and Lisa Carter, Jake and Ashley McGill, Alex and Alyssa Wanless, Jamie Babosh, Brody and Jenna Babosh, and Elliette Russell; great-grandchildren: Weston, Tripp, Clayton, Victor, Georgia, Colton, Jessica, Julia, Lauralei, Waylon, and Emerson.
He was preceded in death by his wife of 57 years, Connie McGill; his parents, Claude and Laverne McGill; brothers, Gale McGill and Marvin McGill; and great-grandson, Trent Ryan Carter.
