My most heartfelt condolences to the family and especially to my dear friend Kathy MacMillan McCord. Mr. Mac was a good person. He and I had numerous conversations as I was a teenager and later into my adult life. I fondly remember both his sense of humor and the value he placed on integrity. Some of my most profound life lessons came from Mr. Mac. Rest in Peace. You earned it.
