Beyond his professional endeavors, Mac's life was rich with interests and activities that brought joy to him and those around him. His dog, Miss B., was a constant companion and source of unconditional love. Mac's passion for the outdoors was evident in his love for horses, raising cows, and tending to his farm.

A man of faith, Mac served as a member and board member of Weems Road Freewill Baptist Church, where he found spiritual solace and fellowship. His commitment to his church community was unwavering, and his presence will be profoundly missed.

Mac's adventurous spirit shone brightly when he spoke of his travels. He had a gift for storytelling, often captivating his listeners with tales of the places he'd seen and the experiences he'd had, especially those from his time in the Army. His love for adventure was also shared with the younger generation when he worked with teens traveling with adventure groups, instilling in them the values of courage, resilience, and exploration.
