Mary Anna Lewis Dorsey, beloved daughter of the late Clarence Lewis and Margaret Davis Drummond, was born on October 5, 1937 in Assawoman, Virginia. She departed this life on April 2, 2025 at her residence in Pocomoke, Maryland.

“Anna,” as she was lovingly known, was educated in the public schools of Accomack County. She entered the workforce at an early age.

On October 8, 1960, she married the love of her life, Henry Dorsey. Their union was blessed with fifty-one years of marital bliss until his demise in 2011.

Anna was a faithful member of First Baptist Church in Mappsville, Virginia. There she served on the Usher Board, Missionary, Willing Workers, and assisted in the kitchen when needed. She loved to help anyone in need.

In her spare time, Anna enjoyed reading the Bible, sewing, completing crossword puzzles, and cooking. Anna’s sweet and loving spirit will be missed by all who knew and loved her. Sleep on Mom Anna, take your rest, we loved you, but God loved you best.
