Thomas Mccannon

July 23, 1950 — December 11, 2024

Thomas Wayne McCannon, 74, of Macon, Georgia passed away peacefully on Wednesday, December 11, 2024. A funeral service to honor his life will be held on Wednesday, December 18, 2024, at 11:00 AM in the Chapel of Fairhaven Funeral Home.

Thomas was born in Athens, Georgia on July 23, 1950, to the late Mr. James McCannon and Mrs. Evelyna Porterfield. Thomas, a man whose passing has left a deep void, was known for his love of the simple joys in life. He found peace in fishing and spending time outdoors, always enjoying activities like cutting his grass and visiting yard sales. A frequent traveler to Lowe's, he took pride in his crafts and his family. Thomas had a playful side, often referring to his favorite music as "bop bops," which filled his house with warmth. Above all, he was incredibly proud of his grandson Kaleb for making the decision to  join the Marines, a source of immense joy and pride for him. Surrounded by family, Thomas lived a happy, fulfilling life.

In addition to his parents, he is preceded in death by his son, Jason McCannon.

Left to cherish his memory is his loving wife of 44 years, Paula McCannon; daughter, Amy (Albert) Lewis; sister, Janis Patterson; two grandchildren, Jaden (Cody) Turner and Kaleb Knight; great grandchild, Brittany Turner; mother and father in law, Calvin and Gail Watts; brother in law, Michael Watts (Tamara); nephew, Todd Watts (Stephanie), their children, Tessa and Mason; and best friend, Harold.
