Mac had a way of brightening a room with just his infectious, ever present smile even during some very tense times. A great sense of humor, a great human being and a great friend to have.  As the logs chief the welfare of the responders was always number one.  Humanity has taken a loss with Mac's passing.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

 I first ran into Mac in the early 80's we had alot of fires in area called Palm Bay allways was easy to work with and a fellow surfer! I always liked seeing him on any assignment.

Mac was a good friend and a good guy. I spent many days at BFCT teaching and sharing war stories with him. Mac you will be missed.

I first met Mac at Kennedy Space Center while screening for the DOF.  He showed me all the good hiding spots at both Kennedy and Patrick AFB - We screened lots of good stuff together in those days.  Enjoyed our lunch times as well.  See you on the other side - Mac!

I worked with Mac at Orlando District while I was a Duty Officer and he was a FAS for Orange County, before he transferred to Brevard.  Never have I seen anyone more easy to work with to get the job done as a team than did Mac.  Mac is in a better place now and I know you will all understand when I say to Mac :   SURFS UP!!!!!!

I worked with Mac on many fire assingments, a man with integrity and honesty, one who attached a personal feeling and attitude to every job.,or great idea that he shared.
We need more Mac's in this world we still live in. He was also one who taught me to give a person a break, look at them, and to see there potential.

Mac was a great friend. Always enjoyed working with him. Barry Coulliette

I did not get to work with Mac very often but when I did it was an enjoyable experience.

I worked with Mac on an incident. He was such a pleasure to work with, and had a truly excellent personality. He will be missed, and remembered.

I worked many hours with Mac mostly with the Blue Team (DOF) we were on together he will be missed he was a great guy!

Mac had the best sense of humor and didn't let the small stuff get to him much. I worked several incidents with him as my supervisor and he always took care of his people. The memories of him will always bring a smile to my face.

On my desk is a name plate that Mac had his father make for me - every time I look at it I think of him.  He was a really great fire fighter and member of the Florida Forest Service Community and he will be sorely missed.

Mac was one of a kind. I will always remember his honesty and unique sense of humor. I enjoyed working with him and regarded him as a friend. Tom Donohoe
