Alan, Yes I would know of the Mack family a little. One of the girls name was Donna, she was my age and I went to school (grade 10 -11) in Longeuile wuth her. We weren't what you would call friends but we had mutual friends. Last I heard she married a guy named Earl , also from St.Hubert. Small world
