CHARLOTTE Marcia Neely Gilbert, 61, of Charlotte, was called home to Heaven Sunday, Oct. 4, 2015. She lived a courageous life, enduring cancer for 20 years with the support of her beloved husband and children.
Marcia was born May 1, 1954 in Statesville to Mr. and Mrs. Pinkney Maxwell Neely. She graduated from Saint Mary's Junior College in Raleigh and UNC-Chapel Hill, where she was a member of the Alpha Delta Pi sorority. She married her husband Jamie in 1977 and moved to Charlotte where they became members of Christ Episcopal Church. She was also involved in the Women of the Word Bible Study, Friendship Trays, the Junior League, Good Friends, and the Metastatic Cancer Support Group at the Buddy Kemp Center. She was also a member of All Saints Church in Pawleys Island, S.C. where she enjoyed spending time. Marcia is remembered, not for her illness, but for her enduring faith in The Lord, for her love of her husband and their children, her graciousness, her tenderness of spirit, and the depth of kindness she showed to others. She was admired by so many for strength and courage, yet was quick to give credit to God saying "I can do all things through Him who gives me strength." (Phil 4:13) In addition to her mother,
Marcia is survived by her husband, Jamie; her son Grant and his wife, Lauren; daughter, Neely, all of Charlotte; brothers, Jim Neely and his wife, Ginger and Bill Neely and his wife, Tammy, of Statesville.
