Isn't that the truth. With Duff losing his dad, and Scott and Matt losing brothers Dave and Slash must be sitting there praying it is not their turn next with the way things seem to be going the past year.

What? Naupis did mention him. "Dave and Slash".

This was posted on ROV yesterday:

It's a bit late, but I just came across this on LAMF:

McKagan, Elmer L. "Mac"

Elmer L. "Mac" McKAGAN b. March 20, 1924. Dad served with the Army Air Corps in Wash. D.C. during WWII as a radioman. He entered the Seattle Fire Department after his wartime service and retired as a lieutenant after 26 years. These were years that he often reflected back upon with much gusto and color. Married Marie Harrington in 1943 and their union created 8 children over the following 20 years. He lived the second half of his life very happily married to Mel (Bloom) McKagan. "Mac" worked for Group Health as a transportation supervisor after his retirement from the Fire Dept. and enjoyed 12 yrs. of dutiful service. Dad was a lover of nature, music, animals, and people. He is survived by his 8 children, Jon, Carol Charles, Mark, Bruce, Claudia Christianson, Joan Baker, Matt, and Duff, Mel's daughter,Laurie Thomas, and 2 brothers, Barton and Gene. Dad also left 23 grandchildren and 11 great-grandchildren. His last words were,
" I'm goin' home ".
Published in print on 7/12/2007.

So it must have happened a few weeks ago. RIP.
