Robert, known to many as “Mac” McGhee, was born on April 13, 1939 in Louisburg, NC to the late Robert Thomas McGhee and Inez Lovena Gay McGhee.
Mac resided in numerous places and cities over the years but, he and his wife, Alice, moved back to Newnan, GA in 2020 to where they were both loved church members, and Mac was a former Deacon of SonRise Baptist Church.
In the early years of Mac’s life, he was heavily involved in law enforcement, holding the position of Chief, in several different municipalities, including Broward County, FL. Mac was a loving, devoted and generous man to many. He was known for his hard working and self-discipline that kept him actively working until his death.
Mac is survived by his loving wife of 62 years, Alice Boggs McGhee; and his beloved children, Tom, Tim (Alicia), Gary, and Donna Renee (Abner). He also leaves behind two sisters, Peggy Ion and Vinette Mitchell. Mac was blessed to have the love of his grandchildren, Hanna, Dillon, Tony, Christopher, Travis, Levi, Corbin, Erika, and Alexis; seven great-grandchildren; and numerous nieces and nephews. He also leaves behind some great friends.
Mac will be missed by many, especially his wife and children who loved him so dearly. He was a wonderful husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather to us all.
