MRS. MARY STACY DIED SUDDENLY LATE YESTERDAY

Mrs. Mary Lavender [sic] Stacy, prominent and well known Brunswick woman, who 
had made her home in this city for many years, died suddenly yesterday 
afternoon at the home of her daughter, Mrs. R.A. Gould, on Gloucester street.

Mrs. Stacy had not been confined to her bed and was believed to be enjoying 
fairly good health, when she suffered a heart attack while seated on the front 
porch of the home.  She died within a few minutes.

Mrs. Stacy was born at Flemington in Liberty county, November 10, 1862.  She 
was married to the late Palmer G. Stacy on May 5, 1885, both being members of 
well known and prominent south Georgia families.  They removed to Brunswick 
shortly after their marriage and resided here the remainder of their lives.

Mrs. Stacy during her long residence here had been active in church and other 
circles.  She was a member of the Daughters of the American Revolution, the 
W.C.T.U. and the Midway Society, and she had been a life-long member of the 
Presbyterian church.  She had not only lived a beautiful Christian life, but 
had always been most active in church affairs.  In past years she took an 
active interest in the various organizations of which she had so long been 
associated.  She was widely known here and throughout this section, and news 
of her death will cause sorrow among many friends who had known and loved her 
for years.

Besides Mrs. Gould, she is survived by one other daughter, Mrs. Fred E. 
Decker, of Watertown, N.Y., who is en route to attend the funeral, and two 
sons, Goulding J. Stacy and Palmer Stacy, both of this city.  A number of 
other relatives also survive.

Funeral services will be held Saturday afternoon at 4 o’clock at the First 
Presbyterian church, to be conducted by the Rev. J.W. Harnsberger, and burial 
will be in Oak Grove cemetery.  The following will serve as pallbearers:

Active, Norman A. Way, A.M. Harris, Wm. McDonald, Potter F. Gould, Julia 
Bennet, Robert Tait; honorary, A.M. Way, J.L. Andrews, C.H. Sheldon, Edwin W. 
Dart, Claude Dart, B.R. Young, O. Vogel, R.W. Harper, R.E. Estridge of 
Thomasville, Judge D.W. Krauss, R.R. MacGregor, T.J. Wright, R.Y. Smith, F.M. 
Scarlett, Judge E.C. Butts, A.G. Kamerer, S.G. Norton.
