Tragedy has struck the Sinise family with the passing of Mac Sinise, Gary’s courageous son, who fought a valiant five-year battle against rare cancer, Chordoma. Mac’s inspiring story came to a close on January 5, at the young age of 33.
Gary Sinise, 68, shared the heartbreaking news on his foundation’s website and Instagram, paying tribute to his son’s unwavering resilience. Mac’s diagnosis came shortly after his mother, Moira Harris, faced her own cancer journey, which she triumphantly overcame.
Despite his health struggles, Mac pursued his passion for music, drumming alongside his father in the Lt. Dan Band and completing his album, “Resurrection & Revival,” just before his passing.
Gary opened up about the devastating loss of a child, acknowledging the overwhelming grief and solidarity with those who have experienced similar heartbreak. “Mac fought an incurable cancer with unrelenting spirit,” he said. “His legacy will never fade.”
Mac’s memory will live on through his family and his music. Gary plans to honor his son’s legacy by releasing “Resurrection & Revival” on vinyl.
Our thoughts are with the Sinise family during this difficult time. Mac’s courage and inspiration will continue to touch hearts, a shining testament to his enduring spirit.
