Dear MacKool Family,
so very sorry for your loss. The Mackool family and ours go way back--our parents were best friends and us kids grew close over the years. Although us "kids" lost touch I'll always remember the fun baseball games, card playing and many laughs we shared. Daves smile was infectious--God bless and rest in peace Dave.
