I am so sorry for your loss, but I am so happy to see you have turned it into something positive. I had never heard of the MAC Foundation until tonight at the Vince Gill Concert and researched it when I got home. What a wonderful way to spread the love for live that it seems that he had.

Vickie, Ron, Mitch and Jordan,
Our thoughts and prayers go out to each one of you. We did not have the pleasure of knowing Mac but after reading the hundreds of entries, he was truly a special and very much loved little boy. As parents we can only imagine your loss and are truly in awe of your family's strength. The work you are doing through the Mac Foundation is the greatest tribute to Mac, keeping his spirit and love alive. I'm sure he is smiling down.

Dear Allen Family,I came across the MAC FOUNDATION website, my son is playing u10 @ CESA & stops to look at Mac's memorial, even though he did notknow Mac he says it makes him sad he is no longer with us,my son's #is 19 & is so proud to wear it. God bless your family & to the wonderful things the foundation is doing. In our prayers,The Parsons family.

We think of Mac every day, and miss him every day too. We will continue to work for the welfare of children less fortunate than our own, in Mac's memory. That is what he would have wanted.

Congratulations...Mac would be proud of you as parents and a family...Merry Christmas

allen family,
I didn't know Mac very will but you only need to talk to him one tie for him to touch your heart. Mac was a sweet and loving person. I miss him so much and wish i had got to know hi better every day. I'm so sorry for your loss and pray for you guys every day. i will never forget Mac and his contagous smile. Mac has touched every persons heart he has ever talked to and every one who hears about him. As far as i know Mac was always an angel at heart.I thank god for the time I did have with him.

mac,
I miss you and hope you are doing good i will never forget you. (19 forever)

The Allens,
Today we all heard of the aweful fire that happend in Nc. when i heard about all the teenagers who passed away, the first thing i thought of was Mac. thinking of Mac and everything we went through when it happend, made me relize i shouldn't cry over what happend today. because i know Mac and all the teenagers are in a better place, up in heavan with God.

I have never in my life ever felt more hurt by a loss of anyone as I have felt by Mac. Mac and I were brother and sister, we told each other everything and certainlty fought like we were family. We never went a day without seeing each other. We would always go to John's house and play soccer and alwys try and bet each other in everything we did.

Mac and I have so many memories that i certaintly do not even know where to start.

In 6th grade mac let me borrow a book called "Hoot".. I read it over the summer and was never able to finish but i thought that the book described Mac sooo perfectly.. Beacuse he really was a "Hoot".
I love Mac so much and will never forget him...

I love you Mac!

Hi, my name is Rachel Clark. I play at U-15 Concorde Fire South and we recently went to a tounament at which I recieved a free booklet. In it was an ad for the Mac Foundation. I don't know exactly what happened to Mac but I admire your family for reaching out and trying to help others. I want you to know that you are in our thoughts and prayers and just remember.... God always has a plan!

Dear Ron, Vickie, Jordan & Mitch,
Your courage is an inspiration to all of us, and gives great strength to our children. Mac will forever be remembered, and will always hold a very special place in our hearts.
We love you.

Hey,
Even though i am in florida now i will always remember Mac. I have known him since i moved into Chirstopher Ridge and we have been as close as family ever since. I remember studying together in fourth grade and hanging out around the nieghborhood together. I think the main thing we all remeber about Mac was his warming smile and the fact that he cared and could always make you laugh. We have had so much fun over the years together. It is said to see him gone. He effected each and everyone of us.
I remember his vioce perfectly, even when at John's house playing soccer and him singing about chicken.lol He was never afraid to express himself and we got a laugh out of that. I wish i could have been there but living in florida has disadvantages.
Well prayers and love to the allen family.

Even though its been a while since Mac's death everyone is still being affected by that tragedy. We will forever miss him and keep you all and Mac especially in our hearts. and remember light comes in the morning light

Mr. and Mrs. Allen-
I know that not many people have been writing in here lately but I want you guys to know that we are all keeping your family in our prayers. I can also assure you that Mac hasn't and will NEVER be forgotten. He was a great kid. I hope you guys are doing better.
#19 Always and Forever.
