Bismarck lost a legend when longtime resident J. Michael McCormack passed away unexpectedly on August 28.  A beloved history professor at Bismarck State College for many years and a member of the Bismarck Rotary Club for several decades, McCormack brought wit and wisdom to club gatherings and almost never missed a meeting.  His Celebration of Life was filled with family, friends, and numerous Rotarians.  We will miss his profound presence. Godspeed, Mike.
