Thinking of the McCarty family, immediate and extended, in the wake of the passing of the proud and gentle patriarch. He leaves behind one of life's better accomplishments: raising a family and setting an example to the children of how to be humble beings of integrity, love, charity and intelligence.

With this simple deed, it can be said that he left the world a better place than he found it.

We should all be so accomplished.
