Mac, known to many as "Tootie", spent his entire life trying to help others. His tours in the Army Air Corps, US Air Force and Active Reserves, Texas Highway Patrol, Texas Rangers and the El Paso Sheriff's Department, embody a lifetime of selfless service. -MAC STOUT STOOD THE WATCH- He was ever faithful to his family, country, faith and his friends.
