Born in Seneca, SC on March 14, 1937, she was the daughter of the late Annie Kathleen Keith Sanders. Mary was a member of St. Andrews United Methodist Church in Easley where she was a member of the Lucille Searcy Sunday School Class and was actively involved in the Sweet Spirits. She retired from BI-LO after 30 plus years of faithful service and was known by her grandchildren as MeMe, which is a name she was proud of because she chose it for herself.
In addition to her loving husband of 54 years, Mrs. Pace is survived by two daughters: Amanda Pace Edwards (Shane) of Clover, SC and Anna Pace Yarborough (Alex) of Ocoee, FL; a son: Scott Pace of Easley; two grandchildren who were the "lights of her life": Andrew Ray Edwards of Clover, SC and Ava Caroline Yarborough of Ocoee, FL; and one sister: Gaynelle Greene of Gaffney, SC.
