I worked with Mac at Lancaster Regional Medical Center (the old “St. Joe’s Hospital) where he was our Chief Telecommunications Tech.  In 40 yrs. of Facilities Management I rarely met anyone as professional, hard-working, and so proud of his family as Mac was.  My sincere condolences to his family, and please know that you as well as Mac will be in my prayers.
