Dear Shane, Dean and Aaron, So sorry we were unable to attend in person to celebrate Mac’s life. He was indeed a very generous man. We have many wonderful memories of the times we were able to enjoy with Mac & Pam, Don & Barbara, Graeme & Vern and many others in the Sounds and particularly Chance Bay. It was a trip down memory lane watching the live stream. We miss them both very much. Our love and condolences to you and your families.
