Our loved one, Mack Creamer, was born in Phoenix City, Alabama on October 29, 1986 weighing 7 lbs 1 oz. All the nurses said he was like a little grown person, not a wrinkled newborn. He propped upon his hand and arm on my shoulder just staring at his Mother the entire week we were in the hospital. He would cry when they took him from the room. I would go to the nursery to comfort my crying child. They then moved him into my room and he was happy.

Mack started walking at 10 months and learned to talk and read at an early age. Mack was an exceptional child who often helped tutor his friends as learning and knowledge came so easy for him. During his younger years he would read the Spanish Dictionary for entertainment to learn words and phrases for the songs he wrote. Mack's Principal/Teacher gave him wise guidance and counsel in the afternoons. In that time, he also taught Mack to play chess which he mastered and then taught to his friends. In sixth grade Mack had an IQ of 129 and was a member of the Explore Program through Duke University, Durham, NC, where he was given the opportunity to accelerate two school grades.

Mack was a member of the Columbus 1st Seventh Day Adventist Church and had attended their Private Church School and was Valedictorian for the school's graduation. He then was enrolled in the Seventh Day Adventist Church's Home Study Institute through Griggs University, Silver Springs, MD, where he completed his senior classes (English, Math, and American Government) in the 9th Grade. Needing to interact socially he attended Hallie Turner Private School to complete his ninth to eleventh grade classes. Mack's Room was covered with his plaques and certificates of straight A, AB Honor Roll, Outstanding Achievements, and Accelerated Reader (5 books a day). When the teachers could no longer teach him as he had surpassed their knowledge capacity for his grade level he completed his GED through Chattahoochee Valley Community College in 2004. Mack had just received his Diploma 5 weeks before, and was enrolling in Columbus Technical College to learn Electrical Engineering, when he was so brutally and horrendously murdered.

Mack was the "class clown", always smiling, always telling jokes, and had a wonderful sense of humor and a magnetic personality. He loved animals, his computer and games. Mack loved both writing music and singing along with reading, lifting weights and rodeos. He enjoyed the beach and swimming and the mountains especially the Blue Ridge Mountains in Virginia and the Great Smoky Mountains in Tennessee. He also wrote poetry (published "Celebration" & "Timeless Voices") and short stories ("Colours") and took photos ("Classical Moments" published).
