For those who attended St. James School or are a member of the parish, this will take on significant meaning. Bobby "Mr. Mac" McBride passed away on Sunday in Savannah. Mr. Mac dedicated much of his time to St. James School and athletics for more than 30 years. He coached generations of St. James students in every sport, including some members of this blog as well as many of our family members. He was involved in almost every aspect of the parish but was most known for his tireless efforts with the student-athletes. The football field at St. James is named in his honor, a scholarship fund is in his name, and the City of Savannah presented him with the honor of Coach Bobby McBride Day. Many would say he has been the most beloved and significant figure at SJS since the doors to the school opened. He will be sorely missed by many and our thoughts and prayers are with Bryan and the entire McBride family.
" It's the name of the game."

This is truly a sad day.
I hate to hear about this. I didn't know him, but was he the one that ran the scorer's table during basketball season? Black hair and glasses?
