Malcolm "Mack" A. Lee

Malcolm “Mack” A. Lee, 72, of Sorrento, La., and a resident of Pierre Part, La., passed away on May 9, 2026. Mack was a beloved husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, brother, and cherished friend to many.

Mack worked as a pipefitter for many years across multiple companies, forming lasting friendships along the way. An avid outdoorsman, he spent time in nature; trapping, hunting, fishing, setting bush lines for turtles, and setting crawfish and crab traps. He was a lifelong member of McElroy Hunting Club.

Mack enjoyed spending time with family and friends, cooking great meals, and relaxing around a fire.

One of his great joys was being called Pawpaw. Whether sitting beside him in his rocking chair, or finding ice cream in his freezer, his grandchildren will forever cherish the comfort of his presence and the steady love he showed.
