I can't believe he is gone. We talked several times that week and he was just as energetic and silly as always. He called me just last Friday to wish me a safe trip to Nevada and to tell me he still hadn't seen any deer. I feel so terrible about not being able to make it home for his funeral. He was my best friend at work, though whenever he was around, it was so much fun that you really couldn't call it work. He was always there when you needed him (or just a laugh) and I will never forget him!

Jan, I am so shocked and saddened by Mac's death! I will always remember him and his booming voice whenever he yelled from the backyard to Momma or knocked on her side door. He was always smiling and laughing and telling jokes. You both were such great neighbors for Momma and Daddy. I'm truly sorry I can't be there for you like you were there for us when we lost momma and daddy. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. I'm so very sorry! Love, Jody Denmark Toth

Jan and Lindsay, I'm so sorry for your loss. I feel like Mack was more than just my Grandmama's neighbor, but like part of the family. As far back as I can remember, he was always out in the back yard with stories and jokes to tell us. His familiar face will be sorely missed. I am praying for you all to have comfort during this difficult time.
