So I didn’t always have great things to say about you. But I think what made you and I special is that we weren’t always on the best terms. I’ll keep it short because I want to continue our conversation for when it’s my time to go. But also just a kid with really bright eyes about life.

Since Mac’s passing, you’d be hard-pressed to find anyone who ever had an ill word to speak about him but unfortunately, there’s always one person who just has to go against the grain.
