This literally pained me to read. I still recall all the harsh words about being in different branches we would trade...all in good fun.

R.I.P. 1SG
You stand relieved of your watch.
Relieved by those you cared for, looked out for, and and will cherish the memory of you.
We have the watch.

I have been busy lately dealing with a death in my congregation and missed this post. His family and loved ones are in my prayers. I am sorry that he is gone so soon.

RIP. That's too young to go

**** man... that’s just heartbreaking in many ways.

Mac was one of the first people I interacted with online. Gone too soon. Mac and his family, friends are in my thoughts. Condolences.

Wow, just lost for words to be honest.

Hadn't noticed the flag in the banner pic before. I'm assuming it is a recent add, related to this thread. If so, very nice touch. If not, then just apropos that I noticed now. R.I.P.
I've been touched by way too many deaths of 'young' people in the past year. Changes your perspective on things.

The ToE adds it to the banner when major events impact our community, in this case it's related to this thread. very nice touch indeed :-)

I've been talking to Kellie a lot since the tragic news came. Mac was too big to fit in the urn. So part of him is in an urn, waiting for a spot at Arlington. The rest of his ash is ...... in a cigar box. She said that Mac would have loved that macabre joke.
[Reply]

Damn skippy, Ferdi. Let's hope it is a maduro box.

Just read this.... been off the boards for a while. Mac was a pillar of this group and I am heartbroken to see his light go out far to soon!
[Reply]

Yeah, me too. I'm without words. I'd never met him but I always liked reading his posts. My next stick is gonna be a maduro in his honor.
[Reply]

Kellie asked me to share this with the board.

If you are looking for him, head to Port St. Lucie with pitchers and catchers.
