Known Bob since the early seventys when he and Joyce lived on the WW river. We were neighbors and our kids hung out together.
I moved and didnt hear of his passing until lately.
He was my buddy for many years and I always admired his uncanny ability to make money. He had me saying more than once "why didnt I think of that"? Absolutely the sharpest person I ever met and a great friend who helped me several times. He was a big outgoing guy and could sell you something even if you were sure you didnt need it.
Loved him and Joyce and miss them so much. Bud S.

We are shocked and saddened to learn of Mac's passing. We were planning on having lunch together. He was a good friend for over thirty years and we shared many laughs together. He loved the flea market, the swap meets and the art of the deal. It's what kept him going all these years. He was the hardest working guy who always had a smile and a firm handshake for you. Now he is back with his best buddy, Joyce, and happy again. Mac, you will be missed. Our condolences to your family and many friends who are grieving your loss. Love, Frank & Peg McDowell

I was so Sorry to hear of your loss. Sarge was a Real Wheeler Dealer and Truly Loved the Art of the Deal. In the Real Estate Transactions we worked on together, he knew a Good Deal when he saw one and he would go for it. He also loved to talk about his history in the Air Force where he told me, he picked up the Nick Name of Sarge. I am really going to miss him and want to wish all of his Loved Ones my Very Deepest Sympathies.

Our family is so sorry for your loss. Mac was one of my most treasured customers and a true friend. He always had an uncanny ability to find deals and make them profitable. But behind that big man with the smooth, deep voice was a kind-hearted soul who always made friends and strangers feel welcome. He was a "bigger-than-life" guy and he will be missed.
