Obituary of Gary Crane

Crane, Gary M.

Bay City, MI

Gary, age 78, passed away Tuesday, January 17, 2023.  He was born in Bay City Michigan on August 31, 1944 to the late Harold and Alma (Kolb) Crane.  He enjoyed hunting, fishing, golfing, building his “new inventions”, and virtually any opportunity to be outside enjoying time with family and friends.  If there was laughter somewhere, there was a good chance you would find him there.  If the laughter wasn’t there, he was sure to make certain he was there to fix that problem.  He especially enjoyed spending time with his grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

He is survived by his son, Eric (Janelle) Crane; son-in-law, Don Stanley; grandchildren, Payton and Olivia Crane and Sawyer and Blake Stanley; and great-grandchildren, Myla & Sophia Corrion.  He was predeceased by his daughter, Jamie Stanley; brothers, Nick Crane, Don Crane, and Robert Crane; a sister, Janet Bulock.

Gary did not want a Memorial Service, but did want to make sure that everyone took the time to think about the things that you enjoy doing, take the time to do them, and share your stories with one another.  To sign online guestbook, visit www.cremationsocietymidmi.com  Arrangements made with the Cremation Society of Mid Michigan.
