Anne MacInnes Lindsay Montreat, NC - Anne MacInnes Lindsay, of Montreat, NC passed away on September 2, 2011 at Mission Hospital in Asheville, NC, surrounded by her family and friends. Born in Jacksonville, FL on October 23, 1926, Anne was preceded in death by her parents, Duncan MacInnes and Mary Henry MacInnes. She was a graduate of Florida State University and attended the Presbyterian School of Christian Education in Richmond, VA. Growing up in Pennsylvania on a horse farm, she loved riding and working with horses. In college she lettered in Tennis and Field Hockey, and she was a lifelong lover of sports. She taught elementary school in Miami, FL before becoming Director of Christian Education at 2nd Presbyterian Church in Charleston, SC, where she also married her beloved husband, Rev. Arthur Morgan Lindsay (Art), with whom she would share 60 precious years. She and Art were appointed to Brazil as Presbyterian Missionaries in 1954, and for 25 years served on the mission field where Anne taught middle and high school English at the Cole;gio XV de Novembro and Bible at the Instituto Bblico do Norte in Brazil. Everywhere she went, she surrounded herself with children, young people and dear friends. In 1979 she and Art went to York County, SC, where Anne worked as Interim Director of Christian Education at York Presbyterian Church. They later moved to Hampton SC, and Anne was employed by the SC Department of Social Services as a case worker for women and children, where she remained until retirement in 1993. Anne lived out her retirement in Montreat, NC with her husband, and she remained an active volunteer with the Mountain Retreat Association, Children and Friends of Black Mountain, Presbyterian Campus Ministry and the Kiwanis Club. She also served as an Elder and as Deacon for Black Mountain Presbyterian Church. Anne Lindsay is survived by her husband, Rev. Arthur Morgan Lindsay, a brother, Duncan MacInnes, Jr. of Jacksonville, FL, sons Arthur Morgan Lindsay, Jr. (Arto) of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, John Duncan Lindsay of So Paulo, Brazil, a daughter, Mary Catherine Lindsay Crosby (Katie) and herhusband, Michael of Smoaks, SC, as well as four beloved grandchildren, Aaron Michael Crosby, Anna Morgan Crosby, Asher Matthew Crosby (also of Smoaks, SC) and Noah Lindsay of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Anne MacInnes Lindsay will be missed by all whose lives she touched, and she will be remembered by her love of her Lord, her family, her friends, and especially children and young people.

Anne was one of my favorite people. Her love for young people made her an example of a person open and giving to others. Her service with the Presbyterian campus ministry at UNC-Asheville, and with the Presbytery of Western North Carolina's Campus Mission Committee and the North Carolina Presbyterian Higher Education Ministries Board will be remembered and honored as one who gave us inspiration and confidence that the work that we did together mattered. Her legacy of faith and good cheer lives on the ministry to students and campuses that holds hope for the future of God's grace in the world. Thank you Anne for your friendship and example.
