Mr. McStravick,
Sir, I didn't know you but I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served in the USN during the Cold War aboard the repair ship USS Cadmus(AR 14). Many Americans slept safe at night because of you and other American Service men and women who stood ready to defend the U.S. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

To Mac and his family,
Mac you were the best, both at work and play. We worked hard for many years to build Russelectric into one of the top companies in the electrical indusrty. You were the best when it came to leading and helping all that were around you.
We saw how you led your fabrication department and develop many employees to go futher on in life.
You were always there for advice and thoughts of wisdom. We had many happy occasions at company cookouts and christmas diners. Our softball team won many trophies and you were certainly part of that.
How can we forget the Ball Busters, the racquetball group that you created and had many fun years.
I don't think you ever won but you were always trying. The guys and gals that you left behind in Hanson could tell many funny stories about you, I know I can.
Remember all the Saturdays we worked at Russelectic and then to the Chinese Restuarant at 5 corners in Braintree. Oh how the years have flown by. At that time we had the 3 amigos that shared all that time and fun: Joe Mac, Dave Hunter, Phil Johnson. We accomplished a lot and had fun doing it. As I'm writing this it brings tears to my eyes.

Joe your the best of the best and we all will miss you.

Your friend Phil Johnson
