Not sure what to say?

Dear Kathy & family,
We just heard of Mr. Macke's passing. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Carole so enjoyed working for Mr. Macke between the time he left Dayton Hudson and your move to California. We remember fondly our visit and lunch with you in St. Helena. You all have a special place in our heart.

To all the Macke Family,
We were so sorry to hear about Ken. We know what a great guy, and Dad he was. Hold onto all those special memories. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Condolences to the Macke family:
Ken and I were contemporaries in the early 60's at Daytons . . . during its heyday. He was a good man and a straight-shooter. Reading of his passing set me to remembering his days behind the counter as the hankie buyer and how quickly he rose from there. May God hold him in the palm of His hand.

Although I did not have the privilege of knowing Mr. Macke, his son, Jeff, has many of the same traits of his father who he talked about often and with admiration. I have enjoyed watching Jeff on "Fast Money" and know that his father's wisdom did not go unheard.

My thoughts and prayers are with the Macke family.

Deepest Sympathy,

Mr. Macke helped coach our football team and I was friends with Mike. Some real fun memories are sleeping over at the Macke's. Mr. Macke was just a nice guy, very down to earth. I am praying for you all.. God Bless

Macke Family,

Mike, I am sorry to hear about your dad. My deepest sympathies and condolences to you and your family.

All the Colorado and Minnesota Lietzkes send our sympathy to you all. What a difficult time this must be for all of you. Thankfully you all have each other. Take care of yourselves and know that our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

To the Macke Family,
My deepest sympathies for your loss. I worked at Daytons at the same time as Ken -I was the Junior Sportwear Buyer when he was rising thru the ranks. I also remember him as the "Hankie Buyer" He always had a smile and a friendly hello whenever I saw him through the years that followed. He definitely had "STAR QUALITY"
