Ms. Barbara Jean Mack was born on December 27, 1957 in Sylvester, Georgia to the late Annie Lee Mack and the late Robert Mack.

At an early age, Barbara joined Macedonia Baptist Church where she was also baptized. She attended church faithfully and served as an usher until her health declined. Barbara was educated in the Worth County School system. She was employed at Cagles for many years. Barbara was an inspiring soul. She dedicated her life to helping, encouraging, and caring for anyone she encountered. Barbara’s home was open to everyone, and her hospitality made everyone feel welcome. She was a family- orientated woman and one of the most beautiful souls that anyone could ever meet and let us not forget to mention, Barbara REALLY enjoyed a good time. “Hey BOO” was one of her favorite sayings.

Besides being a good and faithful servant, Barbara was also a wonderful daughter, sister, mother and grandmother. She leaves her legacy of strong faith and hard work to her two loving sons Keysotis Mack Sr. and Lekeywin Mack.

Barbara gained her heavenly wings on Sunday, March 26, 2023 in the comfort of her home. Many are saddened by her passing, but joyful in knowing she knew the Lord. Barbara was preceded in death by her mother Ann Lee Mack, her father Robert Mack (Katie), her sister, Janice Mack and her brother, Wilbert Holmes.

To our family Barbara is alright now. she's in no more pain and she has a new body resting in the bosom of Jesus Christ. The last time I saw my cousin is when I was home in October. She told me God got me and I find comfort in knowing that she knew Jesus. I know she will be missed. Earth has no sorrow heaven cannot heal and to my 2 cousins Boo and Keith your mom is in no more pain. She's not suffering anymore. Your Cousin, Tricia
