Please accept our deepest sympathies. We pray that you find hope and comfort in the promise of our God for the resurrection. Be assured of the prayers of the Keane family.
To Aunt Lil, Jamie, Larry and families: It is hard to believe Uncle Mac's time has come. Your family was always very special to me. You all treated me like a daughter and sister when I attended Western. Uncle Mac was well known on my residence floor as the "cool Uncle" who provided me with an old gallon jug of his home-made wine to help me through my studies. My Sunday dinners in St. Mary's are a treasured memory still. He and I did puzzles together and he danced with me at my wedding. He loved to tell stories and had so many good ones. Uncle Mac will be missed. The comforting thought for us is that dad (his brother Harry) is no longer alone. I am sure the two "Marcaccio Men" are already together, sharing memories, playing cards, annoying mom, and planning when they will make their first batch of sausage for the heavenly angels. Most importantly, they are all watching over the ones they have left behind who miss them dearly every day. Our love and prayers are with you, Patty, Bruce, Matthew and Alaina
