Cora Mack

Cora Lee Singleton was born September 7th, 1944, in Beaufort, SC to the late Janie Bell Singleton and Abraham Brown. Two of her brothers preceded her in death, Henry and Alan Singleton. Cora graduated from Port Jefferson H.S. in Port Jefferson, NY. During these formative years she embraced life’s changes from living in the south with her grandmother, to moving to Long Island, NY and at the age of nine she was sent to live with her mother in Harlem, NY. She was employed as a factory worker, then decided to go to Nursing School, but found out very quickly she did not have the stomach for the job. She worked for Manufacturers Hanover Trust, which is now J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, with 30 years of dedicated service, retiring at the age of 57 in 2007. Cora was a very proud woman, who took pride in everything connected to her; to the way she dressed, spoke, carried herself and the cleanliness of her home and children. She was always welcoming, kind and humble. Her best friend Pearl stated that if she could say one thing about her, it would be to call her an unconditional, reliable friend. Cora made the Bronx her home in 1956. This is where she met her husband, Jacob Mack, and together they had two children, Anthony who preceded her in death and Lisa. Cora enjoyed attending Thessalonia Baptist Church in the Bronx. She was a faithful member before relocating to Georgia in 2022. Cora was a devout Christian throughout her entire life and had an unwavering love and faith in God. She is survived by her loving daughter Lisa and son-in-law Wesley, nine brothers, three sisters, five grandchildren, fifteen great-grandchildren and a host of other relatives that she loved dearly. On July 6th, 2024, Cora Mack ~ loving mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and friend peacefully passed away at the age of 79 in her home surrounded by nothing but love. While our hearts mourn her loss, we take great comfort knowing she is no longer suffering in pain or discomfort. We pray that our loved one rests in Heavenly peace forevermore.
