After graduating from high school, he served in the U.S. Army from 1962 to 1965. Mack retired from Pepsi Cola after 27 years of service. He then became a distributor for Tastee Kake and Ottenberg Bakery.

Mack was predeceased by his parents; his sisters, Hazel Young and Bertha McFarland; brothers, Tommy "Mixie", Carey, David, Jimmy, Jobey, James, Cecil, Townsend "Joe, Jr." and Curtis "Sponkey" and stepdaughter, Maxine.

Surviving to cherish his memory is his devoted wife, Linda, of 18 years; his brother, Rev. Jerome McFarland (Laura); his daughters, Alyce and Patricia; son, James; his stepchildren, Timothy Heard, Theordara Heard, Tommy Heard, Levias "Kelsay" McFarland, Crystal McFarland and Anthony Briscoe; his grandchildren, Peace Naomi McFarland and Malachi Khalil McFarland and Goddaughter, Jorita Meredith-Chew.

"Uncle Baby", as called by his most devoted nieces and nephews, will always hold a special place in their memories, especially his nieces Clynette Russell (James), Candace McFarland, Jackie Grant (Greg), Kim McFarland and Tony McFarland (Ruby); cousins, William McDonald (Eleanor) and Barbara Morrison, as well as a host of many other loving nieces, nephews, cousins and friends. Mack was blessed over his lifetime with so many special and caring individuals; especially Sheena Makle, who was his most devoted caregiver.
