Brady Keith Lambert, 58, of Bassett, passed peacefully into God's eternal presence on Monday, January 17, 2022.

He was preceded in death by his father, John Lambert; and grandparents, Edgar Brady and Rozella Mills, and Kent and Katherine Lambert.

He is survived by his loving wife, Loketta Dawn Lambert; mother and stepfather, Paige and Cephas Dalton of Willis, Va.; and brothers, Barry Lambert (Chae-sun) of Harker Heights, Texas, Ben Danner (Sandy) of Southport, N.C., and Brian Danner (Joanna) of North Wilkesboro, N.C. He is also survived by many nieces and nephews.Brady was born on April 14, 1963, in Wytheville, Va.

He was a 1981 graduate of Mount Airy Senior High School, where #71 was a proud member of the Granite Bears football and wrestling teams, drama and drafting clubs, and served on the student government council. While employed at H&W Trucking in the summers. He was given the nickname "shady" not because he was up to no good, but because he was always as cool and calm as a shade tree. He attended both NC State University and Surry Community College obtaining his degree in 1986. Brady was well known in the community thanks to his involvement in local church and community organizations. Upon leaving the workforce, Brady relocated to Floyd, Va., where he spent many hours volunteering at Skyline Manor Nursing Home. It was during this time that he met the love of his life, Loketta Martin. They were married in 2007 and enjoyed many happy years together. He attended Christian View Pentecostal Holiness Church in Stoneville, N.C. Brady gained the new nickname "candyman" as he always carried a pouch of butterscotch candies for any and all whom he felt needed a smile. He will be remembered in a small private service for family and close friends. Brady will truly be missed by all whose lives he touched. In lieu of flowers, the family is asking that donations be made to the Brain Injury Association of North Carolina (https://www.bianc.net/donate/) in his memory. Online condolences may be sent by visiting www.maberryfuneralhome.com.

Roanoke, Virginia (The) · Sunday, October 24, 1943

Geraldine Dickerson Larson, formerly of Floyd, passed away at Halquest Memorial In-Patient Unit, Arlington, Va., on January 10, 2012. She was the only daughter of the late Waitman Taylor Dickerson and Mary Leila Sumpter Dickerson and the last surviving grandchild of the late Harvey and Octavia Simmons Dickerson. The Dickerson and Sumpter families were early settlers of Floyd County in the 1700s. Mrs. Larson was born on August 6, 1920, at the Dickerson home place on Penn Road, Floyd, Va. She attended Floyd County Schools, graduating from Floyd High School in 1937. From Floyd, she went to Roanoke, Va., to attend National Business College from which she graduated in June 1939.
Geraldine then moved to Washington, D.C. She began her career as a "government girl" working for several agencies before working and retiring from the Department of Health, Education and Welfare.
She was a long time member of Foundry Methodist Church in Washington, D.C. , and made her home in Arlington, Va. For many years, she kept the family home in Floyd, returning to see relatives and friends when she could. When it became too difficult to travel from Arlington to Floyd, she sold that property.
Geraldine was an independent career woman, a cat lover of renown, and a woman of firm opinions. To describe her as feisty is to understate her pluck and determination. While Geraldine stayed in touch with relatives for most of her life, as she grew older and those near and dear passed away, she sometimes speculated on the merits of out living her peers.
Geraldine is survived by several Sumpter and Dickerson second cousins, including Patricia and Colleen Kelly, of Southbury, Conn., and Dickerson cousin, Margaret A. Smith, of Floyd. Her close friends and neighbors in Arlington, Dennis and Jeannine Comella, cared for her and facilitated her ability to live independently.
A Memorial Service will be conducted at 2 p.m. on Saturday, April 21, 2012, at Wood Funeral Home in Floyd with the Rev. Richard Thomas officiating. Interment will be held in Jacksonville Cemetery in the Family Plot. Arrangements by Wood Funeral Home in Floyd, Va., 540-745-4100.
