Edward McDonald (RIP)



Overnight my Brother-in-Law, Edward (Mic) McDonald, passed away, quietly in his sleep.

When we last saw him, a few weeks ago, he was still up and about and chipper, reading a novel about Nazi Occupied France.

Mic lived a full and productive life.  He was from Janesville, Wisconsin, and graduated from Purdue University as a Pharmacist.  He had a career in drug sales with Eli Lilly, including an assignment at their "staff college".  Later he helped form a startup company that tested blood gases during operations.  The company sold to 3M and Mic bought a trawler, Pendragon, and Summered in Seattle and Wintered in Laguna.

Mic is survived by his wife and two daughters, and, of course, my wife.

Regards  —  Cliff
