LaVicy McKnight-Brice, 87
DOVER - LaVicy McKnight-Brice moved to Dover in 1980 after retiring; where she passed away, on March 16, 2007, at Westminster Village Health Center. She was 87.
She was born on Dec. 2, 1919, in Bishopville, S.C., to the late Elvin and Charlotte Blyther-McKnight.
She was raised in Lawndale, N.C., and graduated from Douglas High School in 1940. She is the last survivor of eight children.
In 1963 she moved to Washington, D.C. and worked at Holy Cross Hospital as a Certified Nursing Assistant for 30 years.
She learned the truth with the aid of Sister Virginia McTyre and Sister Margaret Wood. Sister Brice symbolized her dedication to Jehovah by water baptism in 1986. She remained firm to her faith the rest of her life.
Sister Brice enjoyed many interesting hobbies such as crocheting, exercising, walking, bike riding, reading and humming along with many of her favorite Kingdom melodies.
Sister Brice is survived by a daughter, Theressa Jean and son-in-law Bob Grier, of Dover; a grandson, Anton Hines of New Castle; a granddaughter, Jenessa Pounds Craig and her husband, William Craig of Ewa Beach, Hawaii; a devoted adopted spiritual daughter, Janet Brady of Dover; two sisters-in-law, Annie Laura McKnight of Washington, D.C. and Susie McKnight of Shelby, N.C.; and many nieces, nephews, grandnieces, grandnephews, other family members and friends.
Sister LaVicy Brice was loved by many and will be greatly missed.
Funeral services will be held today at 11 a.m. in the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah"s Witness, Dover, with a viewing from 10:30-11 a.m.
Burial will be in Sharon Hill Cemetery, Dover.
Arrangements by Bennie Smith Funeral Home.
