I met Mack for the first time at one of the PMEL Advisory Group meetings in the early 2000's. That was the beginning of a great friendship both personally and professionally. It was a humbling experience to work with a person having such vast knowledge and insight. His skills were matched only by his exemplary work ethic. But it was his friendship that I most admired. That is where the real Mack could be seen. He was my successor as Tinker PMEL Flight Chief and it was a great honor for me to have someone of his caliber assume the role. The attached photo was taken at our house during my birthday celebration. Mack was a guiding light for so many people and he was also my friend. I will miss him terribly. Godspeed Mack, you will never be forgotten.
