Everyone who knew Mack felt his big heart, giving nature and even bigger personality. He will be missed by so many but especially by his six grandchildren, with whom he spent countless hours attending sporting events, school activities and talking Georgia Bulldog football. He also enjoyed lunches with friends and reconnecting with those from the past. Mack and his beloved wife Donna of 65 years relished their travels throughout the country and the many friendships they gained throughout. Mack retired from the Georgia Department of Transportation after working for over 40 years.
A private interment will be at Memorial Park South Cemetery.
