Charles Mack Owens
Charles Mack Owens, 77, of Simpsonville, left to be with our Lord and Savior on June 1, 2025, surrounded by his family. He was born on July 4, 1947, and raised in the Poe Mill community and graduated from Parker High School. He proudly served in the United States Marine Corps and was a dedicated supporter of the Disabled Veterans of America.
Mack’s favorite place on earth was his lake house, and he greatly enjoyed fishing. He loved golf, spending time with his family, friends, and dog babies (Cody and Peanut). He always had a smile for everyone despite how he felt any given day. Mack loved to have fun.
Mack’s goal in life was to be a blessing to at least one person every day. He was generous, kind, and giving to his community, friends and family. He frequently rode his golf cart to go check on the neighbors and make his rounds. He was passionate about helping others and was loved by many. Mack was devoted to his family and loved them all very deeply. Most importantly he was a Christian and he loved the Lord. One of his favorite verses was, “It is more blessed to give than to receive”. Acts 20:35
Survived by his loving wife, Rhonda Owens, his children: Heather Owens (Todd Mathews) and Kim (Matt) Childress; grandchildren: Wesley and Gavin Childress; sisters: Linda Tinsley and Carolyn (Wayne) Turner. He would also want us to mention his two nephews that have given him so much love and joy in life, Ryan and Josh Riddle.
He was predeceased by his parents; Laylan and Sara Owens, Sisters; Nancy Rose, Omelia Derrick and Sandy Owens. Brother; Albert Owens.
We want to send a huge special, loving praise, and thank you to Ms. Debbie Lemmons, family friend, and Mack’s sister, Ms. Carolyn Turner, for being our caregivers and loving Mack so much. Also, thanks to his nephew, Chad Knight for all the love and support provided. We love you.
Mack will be deeply missed by his family and friends. A Celebration of Life Service will be held on Friday, June 6, 2025, at 3:00 PM at Cannon-Byrd Funeral Home – Simpsonville at 313 N. Main St. Simpsonville, SC 29681. The family will receive friends following the service.
Jesus truly showed His love through Uncle Mack. Uncle Mack had the God-given gift of making everyone feel loved and appreciated. His kind heart always loved unconditionally-in every sense of the word-His unbelievable courage will always be an inspiration when we encounter life’s sinking sand. We are so grateful for our time that we spent with him and we hold on to the blessed Hope we will see him again in Heaven!
Having Mack as a Brother-In-Law was God’s everlasting gift. The wonderful memories of all the times shared with him and Rhonda at the lake, our yearly beach trips, playing golf, or just visiting whenever we could travel down to South Carolina are cherished by our whole family. Mack will be missed so much but he will be forever in our hearts.
My wife and I treasured all the time we got to spend with Mack. He truly loved all his neighbors.He was more like than family than a neighbor. We, as well as our dog Sadie will miss seeing him on his golf cart.
