To the Alston Family,
May GOD bless the family of a great man,a fantastic athlete and most of all , a kind and gentle human being. Mack was always so positive and encouraging especially when I was an young student athlete trying to make it. I always looked up to him and I watched him play for the colts and the Redskins. I was always proud to tell people that I knew Mack Alston and we went to the same university.This great HAWK will surely be missed whenever HAWKS gather in Princess Anne.
May he Rest in Peace,

To the Alston Family, I extend my sincere and profound condolences to you on the loss of dear Mack. I fondly remember him as a gentle kind classmate who always had a friendly smile for all. His qualities distinguished him as a very special soul that I remembered many years later when I saw him playing in the NFL. Now that he has abandoned the physical garment and ascended to the spiritual world, I am sure that he will be lovingly welcomed and embraced by God.
With deepest sympathy,

Dear Family of Mack Alston:
With deep and profound sympathy, I extend my condolences on the loss of your dear Mack. I remember Mack as a very gentle, kind and friendly young man at Maryland Eastern Shore. I fondly remember watching him playing in the NFL and thinking of what an asset he was to professional football, but more importantly to humanity. I can only imagine that he retained those qualities that distinguished him at Maryland throughout his life. I am sure that he has abandoned the physical garment and has ascended to the spiritual world he will be received by our Lord with a loving embrace.
With deepest sympathy,
