When the phone rings in the morning, we think of Mack and miss his phone calls. He was a great, great friend. Our prayers are always with you. Moe and Margaret

Mack.....such a loved man!!!!! He had a way about him that made you want to be around him. He loved greatly and was greatly loved by all. My mom thought the sun rose and set with Mack. He made her laugh!!. Martha I pray for strength for you and all the family as you go through these days of grief. I love you and please keep in touch. Bitsy

My sweet Mack.... precious cousin --I'm gonna miss you so much.
Martha - my heart is with you. I know how you loved him...we all did - he was just loveable and he loved people so much. He's entertaining his "folks" in heaven along with the angels. Thank God, for letting us have Mack in our lives.

The world is mourning the loss of one very special man. Mack, I love you and will miss you very much. You always made me feel so special. I can see you up in Heaven with my Dad (Gene) and Mamaw (Aunt Bessie to you).

Martha, I will be praying for your family during this most difficult time. I love you all very much! You are all very special to me.

I will always treasure the memories of Mack and his family when they visited us in Greenville and when we visited them.

No matter how long between visits, Mack really had a way of making you feel very welcomed and loved. I'm so thankful we were able to see and hug him a couple of months ago. Mack, I love you. We'll see you again. Martha and family: God be with you and hold you in His arms. Love yall

I was so sorry to see Mac's obit. I will always regret that I didn't get to know him better but it was great to be with him the times I got to. My grandmother was Virginia Washington Ely McNeill, daughter of James Washington Ely. I wish I had gotten to know my dad's relatives as well as I knew my mom's but the McNeills didn't "push" reunions as much as the Thompsons and Howells. It would have been wonderful to know more of Daddy's folks and I appreciate Sammy and Lee Wess keeping in touch...

Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

I was so sorry to hear of your loss. My prayers are with your family.
