What memories we have of Mack and Carolyn.  'Many hours filled with laughter, prayer and good times.  The first time we saw "Little Giants" was with Mack and he literally laughed so hard he got out of his seat to walk around.  We traumatized the theater!  What fun.  We will never forget his laugh and humor that characterized his life for us.  We loved him and look forward to a great reunion in the future. Sending love to Carolyn and the family.

Mack was a very kind person and he touched everyone heart that he met. He was always laughing and smiling.  He gave his life to the church. My prayers are with you and your family. Your neighbor Debbie.

Mack was a great and loving neighbor he will be greatly missed.  He touched many hearts.  from June, Debbie and Karen.  Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

God broke the mold when he made Brother Mack.  We always enjoyed singing at his church and spending time with him.  Bro. Mack and I often shared stories of flying and he always gave me one of his bear hugs when he saw me.  He'll be missed for a while here but will be waiting for us to join him.
