    Notes 
    • Among others, survived by six brothers and one sister. "Mack had been associated with traveling men for a period of perhaps 25 years, and few men in the state had more extensive acquaintance with these 'knights of the grip,' than he. His ready wit and humor was an inspiration to all, and he will be missed by all alike." [4]
