Mamie Jacobs, born on March 14, 1938, in Bishopville, South Carolina, to Lucille and Andrew White, passed away on November 15, 2025. She was educated in the Bateview Public School System and accepted Christ at an early age, being baptized at New Hope Baptist Church. Mamie and her family later moved to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, where they joined Tabernacle Baptist Church.

Mamie dedicated thirty-five years of her life working as a dietitian at Episcopal Hospital until her retirement in 1997. In 1971, she married Rev. Roy Jacobs and lovingly helped raise three of his four children. As First Lady of Moores Memorial Baptist Church, Mamie supported her husband's ministry until his passing.

She was an active member of the Ministers' Wives and Widows Auxiliary, contributing to many of their functions. Mamie is survived by her stepchildren, sisters, brother, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, nieces, nephews, cousins, and close friends. She was predeceased by her husband, Rev. Roy Jacobs, her sister Annie Davis, and her brother Andrew Jr.
