Not sure what to say?

Ms. Mac was a very influential teacher in my high school years. I will always remember my audition for choir when I was preparing to enter my 9th grade year. She gave me confidence and encouragement in my vocal ability and I will forever cherish her words to me.... "why have you never sang in choir before? You have a beautiful voice."
I was honored to be in her Concert Choir, Charlie's Girls and finally Chanteur my Junior and Senior years of high school. I also was lucky enough for her...

Miss Mac you were my favorite. Rest in peace. You will be missed by so many in this community.

Kathy, you will be missed, but remembered for the memories that I have while I was member of your choir at Peace church. I thank you for those wonderful memories. You were an inspiration to all of us...
" only one life, yes only one, now let me say, "Thy will be done"; and when at last I'll hear the call, I know I'll say "twas worth it all"; Only one life, 'twill soon be past, Only what's done for Christ will last."
Thank you Kathy Mac for what you you gave back to your family at...

Ms. Mac was one of a small handful of teachers I had in Great Falls Public Schools who I remember many lessons from to this day. As a student at Meadowlark Elementary, I remember thinking how great it would be if I could get into the West Junior High Concert Choir, when they toured around to the elementary schools. Her ability to assemble a program that would be entertaining, beautiful, and inspiring is really unmatched in all the choirs I have been in through the years. She was always able...

Ms. Mac, thank you for your inspiration and musical guidance throughout my high school years and after. Upon hearing of your passing, I felt as though this was the day Don McLean was singing about in the song "American Pie". It is hard to put into words the impact your teachings have made in my life, but music has been and will continue to be one of my greatest joys. Thank you for bringing out the best music and teamwork in all of us, and I wish you well in the next stage of your journey. You...

Kathy was my dear friend for over 65 years. She was a wonderful lady. I have so many memories of growing up with her to keep in my heart. I loved her and will miss her.

A wonderful last visit with Miss Mac in WolfCreek with my dear friend Sarah Mart

My heart is heavy but full, Thank You Miss Mac for believing in me and giving me the gift of music. You will never be forgotten and will always be LOVED. What a Legacy you leave behind in students, friends and musicians everywhere. I love you.

I love reading all the remembrances of Ms. M. I will always remember our "Triple Trio" at West Junior High, how the students worked so hard to get her to smile at us, how we loved singing for her. It is amazing to think of all her students who became musicians and teachers, including me. Peggy, Mary Moore, all the people who love her, I am crying with you. God bless the memory of Ms. M., she will never be forgotten.

I was in her 7th grade music class of '64, nearly sunk her career in 9th grade, and heard about it from her for 40+ years! She was a great inspiration. May the Lord bless her memory...Mark J Haines
