Not sure what to say?

Mac gave me my first job when I was 11 years old. He was in charge of football concessions for Columbia and put me to work selling stuff at the football games. then I wound up as ballboy for the basketball team at Columbia . sorry I never caught up with him I had been looking for him to thank him for those good times as a kid and how nice he was even though he was the best player never any conceit.

Jimmy Mac and I are from the same town of Raeford NC. We were good friends. Had a beautiful family. We miss you Jim. Best wishes to Alexis and children

My cousin you are missed.

Would like to know where you original from??? You spell your name like I do sorry for your loss.

We pledged Alpha Phi Alpha together in spring of 1967 at Columbia University. He was great on the basketball court but even greater as a friend.

To the family

May God's love bring you comfort and strength in your time of need. My thoughts and prayers are with you. It was my pleasure to provide service to Mr. McMillian at Baptist Hospital, Country Club Road.

My condolences to the McMillian Family! I created the first website about the Buffalo Braves on the internet. Enjoyed talking to Jim over the phone a couple of times. Super nice person!
