EUGENE "MAC" MCKINNEY

                          Mac McKinney....our friend!
This 95 year old man will be in the hearts and minds of the Class of 73 classmates forever.  On Wednesday, Sept 22 Mac touched our lives by sharing with us his stories of the Roque Court and his family.  He was married to his late wife Edna for 67 years.  Mac is the last known founding member of the Clinton Roque Association who is still living.  He won two state championship titles in roque 1946 and 1947.  We told him that he will be invited to the dedication of the Roque Court Peace Park but he said we had better hurry up.......because he doesnt even buy green banans anymore.
