My deepest condolences to the family of Mr. McCamy. I got to know Mr. McCamy a little over a year ago when I started working at the Wade Hampton Guard House. He was one of the nicest people you could get to know! Thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time.

I was fortunate to meet this fine man and his extraordinary wife in 1999 at Wade Hampton Golf Club in Cashiers, North Carolina. It has been my extreme honor to have known them both and I will sorely miss seeing Mr. McCamy during each day. I will keep Mrs. McCamy and her family in my thoughts and prayers each day.
