MCCLAIN PETERSON

Very hard to believe it has been 10 years since we've lost our friend. A reminder came in my email this morning, and I wanted to reach out to his family. I lost my only son, J.D., at age 30, just 4 years after McClain passed. Too many good, young, people face this struggle. My hugs to McClains family. Leslie James

He sounds like a wonderful person honestly, he will forever be in our hearts RIP.

He was a great Uncle, i loved hanging out with him. It made me so happy when i would see him smile. So many times he went out of his way for me. i remember when i was younger he bought me an RC car that i did not have enough tickets for when i was at the arcade. Then, there was another time where he went out and bought these little tiny rockets that we shot up into the air, in the little tiny desert behind his house. Speaking of his house, he did an amazing job, he remolded the whole thing...

So very sad to hear of McClain's passing. We worked together on the Zion View Property Owners Association board, where he served as President. I knew him but a brief time but it was easy to see how bright and talented he was. Our thoughts and prayers remain with you as you travel with your grief, knowing how much you must still miss him.

The first time I met McClain was at my daughters graduation from nursing school. His wife, Nina was part of our family and friends with my daughter since the age of 6. McClain sat next to me and we immediately clicked. I found him to be charming and funny; plus I could see how he loved Nina as she loved McClain. Nina and McClain were part of our family and joined us
last Christmas. I truly anticipated sharing many happy holidays with McClain and Nina.
McClain if you see my husband,...

Since so many others have so beautifully said what I would have said, I thought I would tell a few stories about McClain that show what a beautiful person he was. He once told me of a plan to help random strangers, like a struggling single mom, by paying off her house or giving someone in great need a gift. He said he never wanted these people to know the gift came from him. He just wanted to help.

Similarly he wanted to get involved in politics to help people, which he initiated a...

I was truly lost and shocked to hear of McClain's passing. He was such a bright and spirited spot on this earth. To have that light burn out so quickly is shocking. He was always the sweetest and quickest wit for me. His passing is a sad thing that can't be explained. I hope that he has found the peace he always seemed to be seeking. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

I was saddened to hear that we lost McClain so early. My time spent with McClain was always full of laughter. He always had that glint in his eye that said I'm having more fun than you. Condolences to his family and friends. RIP McClain... you will BE MISSED!!! Love, Tobin.

I can only hope that you are at peace now after all of the tribulations you have been through that kept you unsettled. I wish you more laughter and love with your new spirit.
