Gary Lee Page, 79, of Clinton, Missouri, passed away peacefully at home. 

He was born on March 1, 1947. Gary was a lifelong resident of Creighton, Missouri, where he built a life centered around family, hard work, and the outdoors.

He is survived by his loving wife, Linda Page of Clinton, Missouri; his son, Rodney and wife Terri Page/Harringer of Waco, Texas; his son, Toby Page and wife Kim of Frisco, Texas; and his son Chad Page and wife Erica of Neosho, Missouri. He is also survived by 2 brothers: Ronnie Gregg of Creighton, Missouri and Gary Gregg of Kansas City, Missouri. He is survived by his beloved 11 grandchildren and 3 great-grandchildren.

Gary was preceded in death by his parents, Everett Page and Mary (Sexson) Gregg, and his sister, Francis Poe.

Gary retired from General Motors in 1989 after many years of dedicated service. Following his retirement, he built a home on land in Creighton, Missouri, where he spent many fulfilling years. Even after retiring, Gary remained active, working various jobs including time with Kingsville Live Stock and in underground utilities. In his spare time, Gary enjoyed planting a home garden and raising his own cattle. He had a deep love for the outdoors and especially enjoyed fishing and hunting. More than anything, Gary cherished time spent with family and friends. When he wasn’t outdoors or visiting loved ones, he could often be found in his garage, relaxing and watching rodeo on television.

Gary will be remembered for his strong work ethic, his love of the land, and his devotion to his family. He will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.

A Celebration of Life was held April 2, 2026 at the Vansant-Mills Chapel, Clinton with Rev. David Mills officiating.  Special musical selections included "Fishing with Jesus, Lead Me Home and Til' We Meet Again." 

Services were under the direction of Vansant-Mills Funeral Home of Clinton, MO.
