Molly McCormack
Molly Elizabeth McCormack, of Edna, passed away Thursday, April 10, 2014, at the young age of 21. She was born on Sept. 9, 1992 in Victoria to William Patrick and Tammy Sowell McCormack.
Molly was beautiful and saw only the best in everyone and touched the lives of so many. She bravely and courageously fought a 5 ½ year battle with cancer and never gave up her fight to be cured. She was an inspiration and a ray of sunshine to many who were fighting cancer with her at M.D. Anderson in Houston. Molly was proud to be honored at the Jackson County Relay for Life and signing the Pink Fire Truck for cancer survivors. Molly was very thankful to her friends, family and people she never met that prayed for her throughout her illness.
