The Roanoke Times

Roanoke, Virginia · Sunday, January 24, 2016

Marchetta “Marc” Light Lafon, 74, passed away peacefully on January 14, 2021 at her home in Roanoke, VA surrounded by family members and while her cat Angel lay sleeping in her lap. She was preceded in death by her husband of 45 years, Jim, who sold his Volkswagen in 1970 to buy her an engagement ring. She was also preceded in death by her parents, Gabriel Owen and Mildred Reed Light, and her niece, Autumn Light. Marc’s parents raised her in a loving home. Family was not only important in her life – her family WAS her life. She is survived by her devoted daughter, Amanda (Michael Evans) who cared for her until the end of her life and grandsons Gabriel, Jacob, and Douglas Shrader who lovingly called her “Nana”. She is survived by her sister, Madora Lane (Sammy), who shared a bond with Marc so strong that even death cannot break it. She is also survived by her brothers Jay Light (Cathy) whom she greatly admired for his fighting spirit and Dennis Light (Deb) who amazed her with his ability to keep a sense of humor through the hard times in life. In addition, she is also survived by her mother-in-law, Jacqueline Lafon of Vinton and sisters-in-law Pamela Adams (Michael), Patty Sayers (Danny) of Tazewell, VA and Karen Lafon of Pocahontas, VA. Marc was beautiful inside and out. Quiet…Gentle…and Kind. She accepted people for who they were and did not concern herself with what others expected them to be. She loved her cats (Angel and Sweetie) and grand dogs (Sprout and Reggie) who brought her great comfort during the hardest of times. She had a special understanding of life’s difficulties and through multiple cancer diagnoses over the years, rarely complained. It was because of the many gifts and talents given to her over the years by her family that she was able to fight the good fight: the grace of her parents; Jim’s unconditional love; Amanda’s strength, Madora’s devotion, Jay’s fighting spirit, Dennis’ lightheartedness and of course lots of hugs and kisses from Gabriel, Jacob and Douglas. The simple things in life are what made her the happiest: a Jimmy Buffett song; her grandsons’ artwork taped to her desk; a trip to the family farm; Savannah’s Bird Girl and a gargoyle sitting on the fireplace that reminded her of special times spent with Jim; and topping off the day with a glass of red wine. A better human being would be hard to find. The family would like to thank Dr. Paul Richards and the staff of Blue Ridge Cancer Care, Lewis-Gale for their dedication to providing Marc with the most effective care and treatments available. The family will receive friends from 9 am until 10 am on Monday, January 18, 2021 at Oakey’s North Chapel with the celebration of her life at 10am with Rev. Horace Light officiating. Memorial donations may be made to Angels of Assisi, 415 Campbell Avenue, SW, Roanoke, VA 24016 or online www.angelsofassisi.org/donate-now/.
