My condolences Anne. Mac was a mentor and golf buddy to me in my early years. One of the most fun guys I ever golfed with. I wish you and your family all the best.
My deepest sympathies to the Miller family. Mac had a positive attitude towards everything. When the Oilers lost he would say the sun would still shine the next morning. He had the most infectious laugh and smile which I will always remember.
Dear Anne,
Mac was such a kind and caring man with a big heart. We always enjoyed his company, and his warm smile and laugh.
You were both missed very much in our Mission Royale community after you moved.
Lovingly remembered
Ken and Susan Myers
Anne, Lori, Jackie and family,
I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Mac. He was a wonderful man with an infectious laugh that lit up a room. He was such a huge part of my childhood, I have such fond memories of him. From travelling to your lake lot listening and singing along to Bryan Adams, going to my first concert (The Beach Boys), to taking Jackie and I to Chemo to work with him, to him making us his famous mushroom soup sandwiches. All memories I will treasure. Please know that he put a smile on so many faces just by entering a room. A great man that will be greatly missed!
