It is with profound sadness that we share the passing of our beloved founder, mentor, advocate, and community matriarch, Mrs. Charlotte Miller-Lacy.
Mrs. Lacy was more than a leader, she was a pillar in the Wilmington community whose impact reached generations of youth, families, and residents throughout Delaware and beyond. Through her unwavering commitment to service, empowerment, and community healing, she helped build spaces where people felt seen, supported, and loved. Her legacy lives on through the countless lives she touched, the wisdom she shared, and the foundation she helped create through I Am My Sister’s Keeper and the MSK Community Center.
Known for her strength, compassion, honesty, and deep love for her community, Mrs. Lacy dedicated her life to uplifting others, especially young people and women. She believed in meeting people where they were, loving them through their struggles, and reminding them of their worth and purpose. Her presence was truly one of grace, resilience, and service.
During this difficult time, the family welcomes the community’s prayers, love, and support. The home is currently open to visitors for those who would like to stop by, pay their respects, share memories, and support the family.
We ask that everyone continue to keep the Lacy family, the MSK family, and all who loved Mrs. Lacy in your thoughts and prayers as we honor a woman whose legacy will continue to shape this community for years to come.
For any questions or for the home address, please contact Dr. Melody F. Phillips at (302) 304-1070.
“Her work was rooted in love, and her legacy will live on through the people she poured into.”
