She was a past recipient of the Mary Reynolds Spirit of Clarklake Award, which is given to a person that contributed to the quality of life at Clarklake. Mac was one of the original members of the Pineslider’s Shuffleboard League at the Beach Bar and the Hobie Cat Fleet 58. She will be missed by all who knew and loved her.
