There has been a change in the funeral arrangements for Steven. Due to the fact that we are Catholic, he cannot be buried on November 1st. It is a Catholic holiday and you are not allowed to be buried on this day. He will be open for visitation on Monday October 30 and be buried on Tuesday October 31st! Prayer service is at 7:00 on Monday night but ( Read more... )

Steven looked beautiful today at his visitation. Such an array of emotions, but like his mom said, "Today was his party" and I'm sure he was smiling down on everyone there. To the Mackin Family, thank you so much for letting me into your family. You'll never know how that makes me feel. My friendship with Steven was too short lived. Such great energy. Steven, I hope you know how much you'll be missed, not only by me, but by everyone. You showed me that it's ok to take chances, and I will forever be grateful for that. I love you bub!

I'm glad I could do it. If you'd like you could read my post about that evening. I know I couldn't have done that without the help of Steven!

Mack 'n me. noiamthebear October 31 2006, 01:29:43 UTC

He was a boy/man, a beauty, a crush, an inspiration, Grace throughout. Mackin I knew only in cyberspace, but his impact on me was quite real. I met him in a bear chat...the usual comments tossed back and forth about hotness, cuteness, and fur appeal. But Mackin was something different. When we first began our chats, though he was in his early twenties, it was evident that his depth of experience had been created from a primal urge...to LIVE. He faced the possibility of death, and it's effect was to distill honesty at his core. It was freedom and it was infectious.
I wept when, yesterday, I learned of his passing. Today I imagine him dissolving into JOY, pure bliss. It was a place he'd been constructing and living moments of, for sometime. I'll miss him. He changed me.
Thank you, Steven.

Steven, I'll miss you.... anonymous October 31 2006, 05:24:13 UTC

You know, there was always something special about you. I know that we didn't have time to meet, but I really enjoyed all of the great conversations we shared on the phone. I felt that I knew you without even meeting you in person. I'm very regretful that we never got the chance to meet. I should have driven down to meet you when I had the chance. I know that you had a heart of gold and had so much to share with the world. I know I'll miss you now that you're gone, but your memory will live on forever. I'll make sure that other people will remember you too. Good bye Steven ( ... )
