Craig Mackey
August 8, 2008


Craig Merlin Mackey lost his battle against ALS/Lou Gehrig's Disease, but was truly blessed as he was set free from his earthly body on Tuesday, July 29, 2008. He was 56 years old.

Craig was a partner in the CPA firm Kafoury, Armstrong and Co. in the Las Vegas office. He was especially proud to be associated with wonderful colleagues, staff and clients.
Craig loved life, bass fishing, golfing, a good cigar, and a dirty martini. One of the highlights of each year would include the various adventures planned by his cousins and travel buddies, Gerry and Becky Kolesiak. From wine tasting throughout California to golfing in Hawaii, to cruising Alaska's interior passage, Craig live life to the fullest and was excited as each new experience unfolded before him.

We will miss his smile, wit, goodness and his caring and kind manner.

His friends and family will forever treasure many happy memories.

Craig leaves behind his wife of 35 years, Teresa; son Alex; daughter Janna Nicole; mother Belle Mackey; brother Cecil (Patty) Mackey; sister Diana Mominee; in-laws James and Aida Betty and Jim and Cathy Betty; as well as numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, and many dear friends.

He was proceeded in death by his daughter Jenna Miranda; father George Mackey; brother-in-law Ben Mominee; and nephew Russell Mackey.

Services were held on Sunday, August 3, at the Mountain View Mortuary, 425 Stoker Ave., Reno, NV. A reception followed.

In lieu of flowers, we request that donations be sent in honor of Craig Mackey to "ALS of Nevada", 6370 W. Flamingo Suite 3, Las Vegas, NV, 89103.
