Thank you for posting here Maggie.

As Strummer says, MAC is sadly missed here indeed.

My best wishes to you and Fergus and all MACs family and friends.

I do remember MAC, and fondly at that. I still miss his enthusiasm and passion for the Blues, plus, he was a darn nice feller...

Many times past year Mac crossed my mind.... Still, a year already.

Business went on @ 12bar, adapted, with a big hole in the community. The hole Mac left us with.

for as long as I manage my account there, Tears for Mac will remain on Youtube.

Wow. A year has flown by very quickly! :tears: I will always remember my first collaboration with another bluesman. In December of 2009, MAC and I had an idea of collaborating on Robert Johnson's "Ramblin' On My Mind" It was a great moment for me! Here is the collaboration. RIP Mac. :tears:

It hardly seems a year.

I've known others on internet forums who have died, but on a small and devoted community like this one feels a lot closer to your compatriots. He will be remembered.

MAC was always such a positive guy - his posts always left me feeling better and happier.

I think of him often and remember him fondly.

Remembered, and Mac was such a good man and good friend who should be remembered fondly.

It hurts that the list of those to remember with sadness keeps growing.
