Well I didnt really get to know Mack that long but I got to know her really well and got to know her family too.

She helped me through my hard times, she saw me cry and I have seen her cry but will never forget you Mack i love you girl see you when i get up there. And, to her family all I have to say is you are part of family now so dont be shy if you guys need anything just call.

I first met Mackenzie on the Lakelands pool deck and I will never forget her. She had a quiet strength and an indelible spirit that helped to inspire and guide our younger swimmers in such a positive way. My thoughts and prayers are with Mackenzie's entire family, she was an incredibly special child and I'm honored to have known her.
