Sorry to hear about Mac's passing. I enjoyed meeting you on our trips to D C.

Mac Collins at the 2015 GAGOP Convention.

Rod and I offer our condolences. We lost touch after we moved to Texas but often wished we had Mac as our Representative and friend. We still like to tell the story of how after dinner at our house in Jonesboro, Mac asked our oldest son what Bill Clinton was going to do to his piggy bank. He answered, "tax it!". Wanda told us, Mac used that in his campaign speeches.

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.

Mac was a very fine gentleman. I was privileged to know him at Piedmont Academy and had the honor to introduce him when he gave the commencement address. I still have a copy of his speech. (Not positive of the year.)

Julie and children, we are praying for you and will continue to do so. The children were special students at Piedmont and you did a lot of things to make your parents proud. Always remember the principles they taught you.

Love and prayers,
Ann Pope

My sincere condolence Julie and family ... Mac was truly one of the good guys and a friend.
