  Mrs. George H. Lanier [nee Marie Lamar]
  LANETT, Ala. - Mrs. George H. Lanier, 103, died Monday at her home in Lanett.
  A graveside service will be 3 p.m. today at West Point Cemetery in West Point,
 Ga., according the McCarthy Funeral Home, West Point.
  Mrs. Lanier was born Sept. 26, 1883, in Americus, Ga., daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
 C. W. Lamar. She was the widow of George H. Lanier, who was president of the
 West Point Mfg. Co., today the West Point Pepperell Co. Mrs. Lanier was a
 member of the Spring Road Christian Church for 80 years. She was the founder
 of The Chattahoochee Valley Girl Scout Council, and served as the council's
 first president. She was the chairman of the Juliette Lowe (sic - should be
 Low) Girl Scout Camp in north Georgia.

 L. Lanier, Sr. and Bruce Lanier, both of Lanett; 15 grandchildren; 19 great-
 grandchildren; a great-great grandchild.
  In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to the George H. Lanier Memorial
 Hospital in Langdale or to charity.
  Additional Comments:
 Mrs. Lanier was my husband's Great-grandmother who lived to be 103 1/2! He
 remembers going to her house and being offered Coke and cheese straws (yum).
  Her birthplace is wrong in the obituary. She was born on the plantation of her
 Grandfather, Harrison Nichols, near Snow Spring, Dooly Co., Georgia. She and
 her parents later made their home in Americus, Georgia. So is her burial location -
 she is buried at Marseilles Cemetery in West Point.
