(Favorite Memories: I still see his joy in purchasing Lita her first car! As a Dad, Proud and thankful, standing in the driveway. Showing that "Mc Bride smile". PURE JOY for his journey!

The love, care, prayers, encouragement and values (dignity & discipline) he helped to instill in me, will be cherished forever. I'm grateful for our rap sessions of wisdom(Father to daughter). While Pop McBride was fun and witty Dad, you distinctly knew he was a GODLY Man that loved the LORD-a leader of his household; one of no nonsense, that commanded the respect he so deserved.

To cousin Benny! My mother and I so sorry to hear that cousin Johnny had passed on! I know my father would be here for you if he were here. He loved like Sister and cousin Johnny like Brother. If there's anything we can do let us know. Love Alice and Scott Harvey.

Mr. and Mrs. McBride were the last friends to stand by my mother's bedside in hospice less than one year ago. They sang hymns to her, prayed with her and for us. The Holy spirit filled her room that day. Before they left, they both took me in their arms and encouraged me with the only love that can lift hearts in these times, the love of our savior Jesus Christ. May His peace rain down on you, family, both now and until we celebrate with Christ and Mr. Johnny again. Marcia and Scott Stem.

My sincere condolences to Mrs. McBride and family. I like to reflect on some of the wonderful times I enjoyed spending with the family during the summer and the holiday's. Not to mention, the fishing trip that Mr. Mac always looked forward too. I most say, it was a pleasure being in such good company with family,friends and Lita the only woman with the tenacity to be on aboard. The holiday's were just as meaningful you and Mr. Mac always made me feel like family. I know your hearts are heavy now, but reflect on those keepsake memories that each of you have as a family to cherish forever. Sincerely, Wayne Randall
