Take care of yourself and don’t worry about your girls, we are looking after them.  Love you brother.

Mack has to be one of The greatest friends I never met
After Cousin Kevin passed away, Mack contacted me and we became great phone buddies willing to talk about any and all things including his incurable disease.
When he no longer answered the phone, I figured the worst. I am a better man for knowing him

Love and miss you bro.  To the moon and back.  I know where to find you. I’m trying my best to look after your girls just like I promised.  We’ll see each other again soon enough.  Until then...I hope heaven is all we read about and y’all are all healthy and happy and praising the Lord.  Hug mom and dad and  Jackie Raye  for me.   Please keep us all in your thoughts and look after us.  Love you brother. Always. 

Dear Michelle:

  Been thinking about you and Mack and perhaps how hard today is for you. Having lost my wife after a 7 year battle with cancer some 16 months ago..... I know of some (I say some) of what you have been going through, Love you and please don't hesitate to reach out to me if I can be of ANY help. (910) 232-6940

Regards;

Mack was a kind and thoughtful man.   I would like to  send  my condolences to all of his family and friends.  I remember  how he helped my family  out when we were in need and showed my Brother Clifford  a kindness and trust that I will never forget.  He was someone my mother Shirley Ellis loved and  thought a lot of . I have had the privilege  to know and love his sisters and parents who have always been people I love and  admire and at this time I pray for all of those who are feeling the pain and loss of the wonderful Man to find Peace and comfort knowing so many lives were made better by Mack's Kindness God bless all of you! I well be keeping you in my Thoughts and Prayers!        

 Mack was a larger than life personality kind of man. The moment he walked into a room, there was instant joy, laughter, love, and happiness. He gave unbelievably wonderful hugs and always  made my family feel especially  loved.   He made everybody feel special! I will truly miss him, but I will often reflect on the amazing joy that he provided not only me, but my entire family. He will definitely be remembered for the way he made people feel so happy all the time! 

One of my oldest memories of Mack was on one of my yearly visits to stay with Michelle's mom and dad. I was about 12 years old at the time. He took me to a water park for the day with a friend of his. We had a blast. They almost kicked us out when we all road together and skipped across the pool, the sidewalk and hit the fence. I've rarely laughed so hard as the times we spent together or on the phone. As someone else said, he was always the happiest person in the room ... but he did have a 3 text message limit, then my phone would ring. I'm really going to miss those conversations. Love you Michelle and Paige. Thank you for sharing Mack with the rest of us.

I LOVE MACK WE HAVE BEEN FRIENDS FOR OVER 50 YEARS HE WAS ALWAYS THE HAPPIEST PERSON IN THE ROOM 😜😜😜

So sorry to hear of Mack's death. Will keep you in our thoughts and prayers.  Mack made a real contribution to the Copperridge Community. We will miss him 

I will never forget how Mack and I became instant friends and brothers when he stayed with me while recovering from my fall. The minute he in walked in my front door as a stranger, I knew we would get along fine based on his great big smile!  That week I learned about his love for sausage so we traveled to Roanoke, AL to buy sausage. We remained friends over the past 10 years, exchanged our funny stories, and more sausage.  I remember him calling me one time to ask my opinion about wearing a pink tie at his daughter's wedding.  We had a really good laugh about her request.  Regardless of our opinion about "pink, " he was wearing that pink tie because that was his daughter, Paige's request.  I thought about that pink tie the rest of the day so I called him back the next day.  
 I told him if my daughter requested me to wear a pink tie to her wedding,  my response would have been, do you want me to wear pink shoes too. We had another good laugh! Mack and I agreed we love our daughters. He always called me, good buddy. So long good buddy. I will see you again someday.  Mike Fulghum

I loved Mack from the moment I met him! He was a kind and thoughtful friend that truly cared about me and what was going on in my life each time we were together. He always had a huge smile and hug for me and the only person that could make a cosmopolitan just the right way! 
I am without a doubt a better person for having Mack in my life. I will miss you my dear friend!
