A.G. McLean

A.G. McLean IV, age 61 of Fostoria, passed away Sunday, November 24, 2024.

He was born on March 10, 1963, in Manhattan, the son of Amery Gale, III and Rita Gaye (Adams) McLean. He graduated from Blue Valley High School and NCK Tech in Farm Mechanics.

On March 19, 1994, in Riley, he married Dana Danelle VanSickle.

A.G.’s first love was farming. He always dreamed of owning a small feed lot. He began trucking in 1988 with his brother Charles, and continued over the next 36 years, hauling everything from Feed, Pet Food, Potatoes, and lots of Beer. He always put the customer first and took care of them. A.G. served on the USD 384 Blue Valley School Board for 8 years. He loved doing this and always did what he thought was right.

A.G. loved being with family and friends, and he never knew a stranger. He loved traveling and gave his family many adventures, whether it was in the truck, or train, or airplane, or the year he surprised the family with Disney World tickets and drove all the way to Florida in a 1972 Winnebago going 55 mph down and back. (Ask Dana about when the alternator went out in five o’clock rush hour traffic in Atlanta.)

A.G. wasn’t much on hobbies or had time for hobbies, but when he had a chance, he loved to camp, go fishing, and tailgating at K-State games. He always, always, enjoyed a good joke or story, and enjoyed his morning check-in phone calls from Rick Ridder and Larry Wessel.

He is survived by his wife, Dana McLean of Fostoria; one son, Amery Gale McLean V of Kansas City, Missouri; one daughter, Caitlin McLean and fiancé Anna Casner of Kansas City, Missouri; his father, Junior McLean of Emporia; one brother, Charles McLean and wife Tanae of Mooresville, North Carolina; two brothers-in-law, Brian VanSickle and wife Jeni of Riley and David VanSickle and wife Kaycia of St. Marys, and several nieces and nephews who he absolutely loved taking every Christmas to see the lights at Lake Shawnee.

He was preceded in death by his mother, Rita McLean; one brother, Wendell McLean, and his parents-in-law, Wayne and Romelle VanSickle.

A memorial service will be held at 2:00 p.m. Wednesday, December 4, 2024, at the Anderes-Pfeifley Funeral Home. The family will receive friends from 6:00 until 8:00 p.m. Tuesday at the funeral home.
