This memorial website was created in memory of our loved one, Steve McGee, who was born on June 7, 1947 and passed away on July 14, 2017. Steve lived in Atlanta for most of his adult life, most recently residing in Woodstock, GA with his wife Sheri.

Steve grew up in North Carolina with his brother Barry and parents Raymond and Rachel. He attended N.C. State, where he earned a Nuclear Engineering bachelors degree. He later received a JD in law while living in Atlanta. 

Steve held senior management positions in the electric utility industry most of his career in the areas of Power Generation and Nuclear Engineering. Wherever he took on a new role in his career, his staff admired him and loved working under Steve's capable leadership. 

Steve also had a deep personal love for learning and was a favorite instructor in the MBA graduate school where he taught part-time. He was an avid reader and enjoyed research on just about any topic; Clive Cussler novels topped his list, as he relished exploring his interest in history, science and geography.

A devoted husband and father, Steve especially cherished time with his wife Sheri and his four children — Shane, Dana, Natalie, and Sean. After a day’s work, it was not unusual to find Steve building a science project, explaining math homework, reading to his children, or working alongside Sheri as both a parent volunteer and a leader in his neighborhood and community.  He fostered dreaming big in each of his children and he felt enormous pride in whatever they wanted to achieve. But mostly, Steve was proud of the good people he knew his children to be.

Many remember Steve for his wit and humor that captured the hearts of all who benefited from knowing him. He loved his family and was an enthusiastic participant in family traditions. He had that rare quality of knowing just how to breathe life into any event.

Steve's funeral will be a private, family event, but we would love for anyone who knew Steve or his family to write something in the Tribute section below if they wish. In lieu of flowers, if you'd like to do something, please donate to the Wounded Warriors Project, which was one of Steve's favorite charities.
