Hello Friends -
My grandfather once wrote
in this very introduction; "As
we age, the chance to tell our stories becomes less and less."
Indeed, this sentiment spares no one - on January 1, 2010, my
grandfather passed away at a hospital near his home in Cary, NC.
While a saddening event, his passing warrants a celebration
of an incredible man's life - a man than I am fortunate to have known
and spent much time with over the years. I struggle to find
appropriate words to explain the impact that my grandfather has had on
our lives. Simply and seemingly inadequately, he was a decorated war
veteran, loving husband, and charismatic human being with close
personal friends and family members who respected and loved him a
great deal.
As a service to his memory and the many site visitors
he appreciated so greatly, the site will remain active and updated as
necessary going forward. Similarly, his
email
address will remain the primary address for contact
purposes.
I do appreciate all of your well-wishes and will
pass them on to his wife and other family members.
Among other publications, his obituary appears in the
Philadelphia
Inquirer
here.
Best,
Mike MacDade
