William “Coach Mac” McIntosh (1949-2016).
There were two things Coach Mac was most passionate about — football and family. He graduated from Phillipsburg Catholic High School before attending Millersville University, graduating with a B.A. in history. He married his high school sweetheart (Peggy Mangan) and started a family. As a young college graduate, he became a father of two daughters and trusted mentor of four teens.
His first job out of college was as a history teacher at Linganore High School, where he made many lifelong friendships and relationships with staff and students alike. He was one of three individuals who started the Linganore football program and coached there for over a quarter of a century. During his time there, he worked as a varsity defensive coordinator, offensive line coach, and head coach for seven years. In 1989 and 1991, Linganore won championships in the State 3A division. In 1995, as head coach, Mac led Linganore to victory in the 2A state championship. He received the Maryland State Football Association’s Coach of the Year, Class 2A. During his coaching career, he also coached one year at Brunswick, three years at Frederick, five years at Catoctin and one year at Walkersville before going to Middletown from 2009 to 2014.
While he has had many accolades as a coach and teacher, inspiring hundreds of young minds, he will be most remembered as father, husband, uncle, grandpa and in-law.
He was surrounded by family at the time and is survived by his wife of 44 years, Peggy McIntosh; two daughters, Jennifer McIntosh and Heather Thorn; son-in-law, John Thorn; granddaughter, Aven Thorn; five brothers-in-law, Joe Mangan, Alan Bauch, Charles Mangan, David Geltman and James Mangan; and three sisters-in-law, Barbara McIntosh, Laurie Bauch and Laura Mangan. In addition, Mac was survived by four nephews, David McIntosh, Kevin Bauch, Daniel Mangan-Geltman and Thomas Mangan; and three nieces, Maddy Mangan, Dorothy Barker and Carrie Fess.
Coach Mac died after a 15 month battle with cholangiocarcinoma on March 28. Mac was preceded in death by his brother, Daniel, his mother, Mary, and his father, Daniel.
A visitation will be held on Friday, April 1, from 2 to 4 p.m. and 6 to 8 p.m. at the Bast-Stauffer Funeral home in Boonsboro, MD. A memorial Mass will be held at 1 p.m. on Saturday, April 2, at St. James Catholic Church in Boonsboro, MD.
