Mackenzie Boyer

Mackenzie Boyer, age 29, of Grand Rapids and previously from Lake Orion, passed away on Sunday, November 12, 2023. He will be dearly missed by his wife, Rachel; parents, Michael and Leandrea Boyer; sister and brother-in-law, Micah and Levi Pollack; niece, Annaleigh; father-in-law and mother-in-law, Michael and Megan Harley; and sister-in-law, Becca Harley. Mac was an Occupational Therapist, as is his wife. He was just starting a career that allowed him to utilize his compassionate heart to help others. He was an avid soccer player and played on teams with Rachel and his father-in-law, Mike. Mac was invested in treating his body as a temple and loved to ride his bike off-road and lift weights. He used those muscles for other fun tasks like making his home with Rachel a place they could be proud of. Mac will be missed by friends, family, his dog, Maggie, and kitty, Sharon. But he would want everyone he loves to remember him as the witty, strong, funny, beautiful, caring person he was. And to live each day to the fullest. He loved his family fiercely and let them know that daily. A memorial service will be held on Saturday, November 18, 2023, at 2 p.m. at Matthysse Kuiper DeGraaf Funeral Home (Grandville) 4145 Chicago Dr. SW. Relatives and friends may meet the family on Saturday from 1-2 p.m. at the funeral home prior to the service. Those who wish may make memorial contributions to NAMI West Michigan or Special Olympics Michigan.
