Although we only knew Mac for a short time he always had a twinkle in his eye and smile on his face. He will be remembered as a very kind and gentle soul. To his family and the Glunz Family, how lucky you all were to have known him. Our prayers to all.

Mr. Harvey! Such a fine and friendly neighbor! My girls (now in their 30s) loved Mr. Harvey and his wonderful sense of humor. He purchased many boxes of Girl Scout cookies from our two daughters over the years.
His dignified, yet friendly presence on the block will be missed.

Mac and Bea were our neighbors for the 47 years that we have lived on Bittersweet. Mac was a very quiet neighbor, I am sorry I did not know him better than a brief hi when we ran into each other at Sunset or at the laundry. He was always pleasant and easy to talk with if we had a question about the street. We could not have asked for a more pleasant neighbor.
