Cyrus Lawrence Wells, "And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain; for the former things are passed away" Revelation 21:4, Mr. Cyrus Lawrence Wells Jr. was called from labour to reward on Monday, September 6, 2010., Although a resident of Charlottesville, he was born in Faber, Virginia, on October 31, 1938. He was the seventh child of the late Lars and Surilla Wells and a graduate of Jackson P. Burley High School., He was married to his beloved wife, the former Ardelia Bolling for 51 years. Preceding him in death was his granddaughter, Denetra Theodosia Yates; and four sisters, Edna Wells Jones, Margaret Wells Parrish, Beulah Wells Estes and Thelma Wells Garrison., Professing his faith and accepting Christ as his Lord and Savior, at an early age, he united with Mount Airy Baptist Church. The ideals and moral values by which he lived and the love and sense of service which he expressed so eloquently throughout his life form a lasting record worthy of admiration. After moving to Charlottesville, he became a watch care member of Pilgrim Baptist Church where he was a loyal and faithful Trustee. Later in life, he chose to return to Mount Airy Baptist Church where he later was Ordained as a Deacon 2008., Cyrus retired from The Charlottesville City Schools as Head Custodian for Charlottesville High School on June 30, 2003., A compassionate, warm, and loving person, Lawrence, "Jet, Mr. Vittles, Bunny and Cy" as he was affectionately known both near and far, was a loving husband, father, brother, uncle, grandfather, and friend. His unconditional generosity prevailed through his counseling and guidance of others. Some of his favorite sayings were, "You need to prepare for war in time of peace.", "No good thing is ever lost. Nothing dies, not even life which gives up one form to resume another. No good action, no good deed, no good example dies. It lives forever in the race of humankind. While the frame molders and disappears, the deeds leave an indelible stamp, and mould the very thought and will of future generations." And so it is with the life of Cyrus Lawrence Wells. Such a life, a character, a person --- possessed as it was with beauty, love, godliness and purpose will never be lost. His deeds, good works, and Christian example shall follow him long after his eternal rest., His passing on Monday is a deep loss to his family and friends. Those who will be most profoundly deprived of the warmth of his pleasing personality and the strength of his noble character include two children, Sandra Wells Jackson Allsbrooks of Richmond, Virginia, and Hazel Lisa Wells Yates of Charlottesville, Virginia: one son-in-law, James "Sergio" Charles Allsbrooks II of Richmond; one honorary son-in-law, Tim Oliver Jackson of Lynchburg, Virginia; four grandchildren, Chtaura Romayne Jackson, Caleb Ramon Jackson and Rashard Ian Jackson, all of Richmond, Virginia, and Christopher Lawrence Wells Yates of Charlottesville, Virginia; two sisters, Emma W. Johnson and Frances W. Gohanna, both of Charlottesville, Virginia; one brother-in-law, Robert Parrish of Staunton, Virginia; a number of nieces and nephews; and a host of other relatives and friends., The family wishes to acknowledge and thank Dr. Mohan Nadkarni, University of Virginia Medical Center staff and Hospice for the care given during his illness., Funeral services will be held 1 p.m. Saturday, September 11, 2010 at Mount Airy Baptist Church in Faber, Virginia, with the interment at the church cemetery.

After receiving his honorable discharge Jay took up life as a civilian with a humanitarian flare, working in his community as a Wrap Around Counselor at Tidewater Regional. In the midst of his work, Jay found time in 1992 to be sent on a "blind date." This blind date would eventually lead to a budding relationship with a then Debra Evans, and would consequently lead to a marriage of more than 18 years. Although Jay spent the majority of his life in the Tidewater area, in 2003 it was God's will to relocate him to Louisa County., After coming to Louisa, Jay began to work at Tridim Filter Corp until illness prevented him from continuing. It was also during this time that God began to create a new work in him that would lead to a kind of work that was far beyond and further-reaching than anything else Jay had done previously.
