I was asked to copy and post David McBride's facebook post for those of you who don,t FB:
We lost my Dad,
Bill McBride on Thursday in Pensacola, FL. He was 75. My Dad had been battling non-Hodgkin's lymphoma for the past year, but it became very aggressive at the end. He died peacefully. Bill was a devoted husband to my Mom, Kathleen, for 50 years! He was a wonderful father to me and my sisters Amy and Jane. He was a loving grandfather to Owen, Cecilia and Jacob.
If you had the pleasure to meet or got to know my Dad, you know how badly he will be missed! He leaves behind a legacy of the beautiful buildings he built in Pensacola, but most important to him were the beautiful friendships he cultivated and maintained over his entire lifetime. He was the best father and best friend I could ever have hoped for. There will be a Memorial service on Saturday March 24th in Pensacola.
