Reese Edward McGee, school bus driver

Reese Edward McGee, 77, of Georgetown passed away Sunday morning, Sept. 27, 2020, at Beebe Healthcare in Lewes, surrounded by his family after a brief illness.

Reese was born June 20, 1943, in Milford, the son of the late Elisha and Ruth Ann Moore McGee.

He was a bus driver/contractor for the Indian River School District for over 50 years, driving a high school route to Sussex Central High School and never missing a day of work.  He loved the kids, and they truly loved him.  He was also a talented auto mechanic working in and around Georgetown for many years.

He was everyone's favorite uncle, neighborhood dad and friend.  He was known by many and loved by all for his ornery personality.  We will sure miss that ornery twinkle in his eyes.

He is survived by his significant other, Sandra Seutter; his daughter, Teresa Rogers and her husband Jamie Rogers; daughter, Donna McGee and her partner Mike Bloom; grandchildren, Danielle Brittingham and her husband Francis Brittingham, Jason Walls, Ben McDorman and Jesse Rogers; great-grandchildren, Oaklen and Owen Brittingham; brothers, Richard, Ronald and Rodney McGee; sisters, Joyce Collins and Janice Chorman; as well as many extended family members, cousins, nieces and nephews.

Funeral services will be held in the chapel of Short Funeral Services, 609 E. Market St., Georgetown Sunday, Oct. 4, at 2 p.m.  A time of visitation will begin at noon.  Interment will be at White’s Chapel Cemetery, Milton.  All are welcome to celebrate the life of this great man.  Everyone in attendance must wear a mask and adhere to social distancing and gathering protocols.
