Mac accepted Christ as his personal Savior in his early twenties.  He was baptized under the leadership of Reverend Clifford Tyler of First Timothy Baptist Church.  He never shied away from telling people that he believed in God and that one day he would see Jesus.

Mac was a man of many layers.  He was a very friendly and outgoing person.  He always started his day with reading his bible.  He could and would talk to anyone about anything.   He loved to take pictures of clouds.  Often times in the summer he could be seen sitting on the deck taking pictures and then commenting on how awesome God was at forming such beautiful sights.  He enjoyed drawing, growing plants, reading comic books, writing poetry and listening to all kinds of loud music.

Besides loving his family, Mac loved to cook.  There was nothing that he could not cook and cook well.  He had some of the "BEST" ribs and rib tips around.  He would cook for his family members, neighbors, and friends.  He cooked and shopped so much that his Sam's Club and Debit Card had to be confiscated by his wife.

Mac became a really good bowler.  He bowled four Perfect Games (300) and two 800 Series games.  Because of his efforts he was inducted into the Black Bowlers Hall of Fame.

During his tenure he worked on such buildings as the University of Chicago Hospital, Blue Shield Blue Cross, Sears Tower, and Terminal 2 and Terminal 3 at O'Hare Airport.  Mac loved being a Sheet Metal Worker.  Mac worked rather it was freezing cold or blazingly hot outside without complaining.  He would always say, "It's 90 degrees and sunny baby."
