This Easter morning brings double blessings!! Today we celebrate the Petersburg Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. which was chartered in Ettrick, Virginia, on April 5, 1941, as the Beta Gamma Sigma Chapter. The charter members were: Hermione Carter-King (President), Marietta Cephas (Vice President), Edna M. Patrick (Corresponding Secretary), Leo Roberts (Treasurer), Elizabeth Anderson, Cleopatra Armstrong, Henrietta Avant, Audrey Brooks, Ruth Brown, Marguerita Davies, Gladys Green, Hattie Jones, Lillian Lewis, Sadie Montague, Alice Murrell, Pearl Nelson, Cecilia Scott, Mae Scott, Callie Smith, Enid Turner, Ruby Vaughan, Irene Webster, Phyllis William, and Helen Williams. Their leadership forged our path in the Tri-Cities and surrounding communities. We are PAC and we're 85 years strong!
