Our beloved Mary Atlee Lacy Anderson transitioned home to be with the Lord after a long illness on Thursday morning July 29, 2021, at Memorial Regional Hospital in Mechanicsville, VA. Mary was born on February 27, 1950 to the late Marie and Garrett Norman Lacy, Sr.

Mary grew up in Caroline County, Virginia and attended Union High Public School. She was employed with Best Products as an Order Selector, Paragon Financial in Claims Department and MCV-VCU Health Information Systems where she worked for twenty-four years in the H.I.S.
