Why do I think “Oh deer”? I think I heard that from him 30+ years ago.

Morning Tn-birders…
It is with a heavy heart that I inform you that Mack Prichard, longtime TOS
Life-member, Tennessee State Park Naturalist Emeritus and Conservationist
passed away last evening.
Below is a post from his niece Lisa Luck:
“Wanted to let you know Mack passed away last night peacefully in his sleep.
We are so heartbroken to lose Mack but are relieved that he is no longer
tethered to his broken body. We will all miss him deeply. He has been a
wonderful friend, mentor and an inspiration to all of us. We have not planned
a funeral due to COVID-19, but hope we can have a celebration of his life
later in the year. If you have any ideas about how to celebrate -- let us
know. Mom mentioned maybe we could have a gathering at a state park in
celebration and even scatter some of his ashes. Thank you for your outpouring
of support. I will forward a copy of his obituary to you once it is written.”

When additional details are available I’ll let you all know.
Please keep his family and friend in your thoughts…
Cheers!
