A Tribute To A Matriarch

Marian Beatrice Ross-Pitts: The Heart of Our Legacy

Grandma Bea is the matriarch whose love, strength, and faith gave rise to generations.
In a time riddled with challenges, she was a devoted woman of God, who gave birth to 14 children (7 boys and 7 girls), and built a foundation of resilience, compassion, and boldness that continues to guide us today.

Her life was an act of unwavering courage and selfless love. Through every challenge, she remained rooted in faith, family, and unshakably committed to nurturing those around her.

It is only fitting that our foundation bears her name—The Ross-Pitts Family Foundation—because she is the bond that ties us together. Her legacy is not only in our bloodlines but in the values we live by: faith, family, perseverance, and community.

Thank you, Grandma Bea , for showing us what it means to lead with love and leave a legacy worth building upon. Your spirit lives on in every scholarship awarded, every business supported, and every hand we extend in love.

Your legacy is alive—and growing.
