‘CSI: NY’ star Gary Sinise’s son McCanna dead at 33: ‘Our hearts ache’
NY Post ^ | 2/27/24 | Lauren Samer

Gary Sinise, the star of “CSI: NY,” has revealed that his son, McCanna “Mac” Sinise, died at 33.

Mac died Jan. 5 after a five-and-a-half year battle with chordoma, a rare form of cancer.

On Tuesday, the Gary Sinise Foundation took to Instagram to share a picture of Mac with the caption, “In Honor & Memory of McCanna ‘Mac’ Sinise 1990-2024.”

Sinise, 68, had Mac with his wife, Moira Harris – the couple has been married since 1981, and also have daughters Sophie and Ella. Sinise, who has won an Emmy, a Golden Globe and a Tony, is also known for “Forrest Gump,” “Apollo 13” and “The Green Mile.”

I've known of Mac's passing since 1/5 but couldn't say anything. I worked with Mac for two years at GSF. What a great and courageous kid. Faithful Christian as is the entire family. I've had cancer but that was a cakewalk compared to what Mac went through. He never complained.

It just amazes me that in this world with so many people who cause so many problems with crime, mental illness, and thirst for power, we also have people like the Sinise family, who serve others, battle disease with dignity and fearlessness, and bring joy with the way they go about their lives. Whenever I think we are doomed, I hear of inspirational people who handle the deepest tragedy with grace and love and faith. As much as I am saddened by the passing of this courageous young man, I am touched by the love expressed from his father. God truly works in mysterious ways.

I feel terribly sad for Gary Sinise’s loss of his son. The grief of losing one of your children is horrendous. I will pray for him and his family to receive comfort from God.

You wrote a powerful and touching post and tribute. Thanks.

It's weird that when I heard of another young man passing at first I thought "drugs." As silly as it sounds, I was relieved to learn it was cancer and not drugs that he died from.

May young McCanna rest in peace. The Sinises seem like an outstanding family.

Probably everybody here knows that Gary Sinise has done so much for our Veterans and First Responders. He launched and runs the Gary Sinise Foundation. If you didn't know, it's a fine organization and worthy of a donation.

Gary Sinise posted an incredible tribute to his son on his Gary Sinise Foundation web site. Nobody can read this and not be torn apart by the love of a father for his son.

Please take a few minutes to read Gary's tribute to his son. It will move you. It is really worth reading and reflecting on.

In Honor & Memory of McCanna Anthony “Mac” Sinise, 1990 - 2024

Mac was Gary’s son, yet had a cubicle by a printer. Asked for nothing.
