Danny and I were privileged to have known Mr. Mac for the past 12 years since he married Mrs. Leona. He was always happy and willing to share his life stories with us... and oh the stories Mr. Mac could tell!! We will miss the excitement in his voice when he spoke about his Army days and his children. But most of all we will miss his kindness, and how he cared for and loved Mrs. Leona.
