John Terence Macker
February 12, 1943 — September 15, 2019
Macker, John Terence (“Terry”) Macker. Born in Los Angeles, February 12, 1943 to parents John Gordon Macker and Regina Leake Macker; died September 15, 2019 after a short illness.
Known to many as “John”, to others as “Terry”, he lived a simple life, unburdened by material concerns, encumbered by constraints imposed by nature and the vagaries of life, nevertheless blessed by the birth of an outstanding daughter, Mary January Rain Macker; two remarkable grandchildren, Ethan, a handsome grandson, and Freyja, a beautiful granddaughter. In addition to the above left behind, he is survived by sister Patricia White, brothers Michael (wife, Lupe) and Tim (wife, Kathleen) Macker, and many nieces, nephews, grand nieces, and grand nephews.
If he were asked what was the meaning of life, he would respond with only a most enigmatic and infectious smile, a smile unlike any other’s, penetrating and unforgettable; and then a toast of a tall V8 and lemon juice. He will be dearly missed.
Services to be held at St. Monica’s Catholic Church, 701 California Avenue, Santa Monica, California on Friday at 10:00 a.m., October 18, 2019.
Condolences may be sent to the family through our website.
