I was so sad to hear of Connell's passing. Even as a child I can remember that when he entered a room it lit up. I can only imagine the huge hole he has left behind for his family. John and I will hold you all in our thoughts.

Connell you were a good friend for about 60 years, in our late teens you John and I would fly around Bletchley on our motor bikes If we went to a dance the rest of us never stood a chance with the girls, they only seemed to have eyes for you.
In a village hall dance if there was a piano on the stage,,in the interval you would go up and play Paul Anka's song DIANA.
So many memories so many happy times back in those days.
Goodbye old friend,God bless you Connell you will be sadly missed.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to Janice and Margo.

Mac had such an interesting life that we always encouraged him to record his many adventures in a book. It would have made for great memories.
We will miss Mac.

Epitaph On A Friend - Robert Burns
An honest man here lies at rest,
The friend of man, the friend of truth,
The friend of age, and guide of youth:
Few hearts like his, with virtue warm'd,
Few heads with knowledge so inform'd;
If there's another world, he lives in bliss;
If there is none, he made the best of this.

We are so deeply saddened by the loss of Mac. Janice, our thoughts and prayers are with you and your families. I knew Mac as the consummate gentleman. He brought light into the lives of everyone he touched, and he touched so many. Good times make friends; adversity proves them - Mac was a true friend. Like so many, I shall dearly miss him and I am truly honoured to have known him. His knowledge, talent, experiences and professionalism made him the ultimate policeman's policeman. The police community has been blessed by his impact. He will be sorely missed. We shall never forget him, his razor wit, "wild" sense of humour, love of life and family, and his caring for others. God bless you Mac and your families.

I got to know Mac back in 1999 while working PVO with him on the track. His enthusiasm "still" after all those years was infectious. A wonderful smile, and great laugh, and AMAZING stories that couldnt help but make you laugh out loud. And boy could he play a mean organ at the Christmas parties. I am going to miss you my friend.

It is hard to imagine that it was 70 years ago that we were together in the playground of Noblehill Primary School in Dumfries. Our paths diverged when Connell went to Bermuda and then Canada but I know he loved his life there and made many friends and the distance was unimportant to us. Our thoughts and our love are with Janice and Margo.

I write on behalf of all those members who served with and knew our good friend "Connell" when he was a member of the Bermuda Police Force. Connell was a truly outstanding police officer, and a great sportsman who captained our first ever Police Hockey Team and was an award winning sailor. We send our sincere condolences to Janice, Margo and to all of his family and friends.

I remember spending time with Uncle Connell on his visits to UK. He was fun to be around and a true family man. He made us laugh till we hurt with his many stories. An amazing man who's stories and memories will carry on being shared for many years to come.

Mac was a true gentleman and I feel truly blessed to call him my friend. He touched the lives of so many Instructors and students at the Ontario Police College. It was a pleasure to work with him; always inspiring, cheerful, professional, and genuinely concerned for the welfare of his students. I am a better person for having known you.
Thank you Mac. You will be greatly missed my friend.
