  2. When I was growing up, Cy was a close friend of my father, Joe McNay. A great guy and devoted policeman. In my teen years, Cy took me to the shooting range to watch him practice and he was a first rate marksman.

    I'm sorry for your loss

  5. Cy was one of my dad's very good friends for years and years. I remember so many stories from Dad and the gang at Burkart's Bar. Even as a young child I remember thinking how funny Cy was. He was also one of the nicest men I have ever met. My dad loved him very much. I will always remember him coming to my dad's funeral two years ago and crying at the casket because he had lost a friend. I live in NY so I can't be at the service on Sunday but please know that my prayers are with you.
    I'm so sorry for your loss.
