ASHBURN —  Funeral services for Mr. Carlos A. McNair, 84, of Ashburn will be held at 10:30 a.m. Saturday, Feb. 9, 2013 at the Ashburn First Baptist Church. Interment will follow at the Rose Hill Cemetery. Mr. McNair passed away peacefully, Wednesday at his home in the company of his loving wife of 59 years.

The son of the late Felix Ashley and Annie Frances Yarbrough McNair, he was born in Mt. Dora, Fla. and was retired from management with Golden Peanut Co. He had lived in Ashburn since 1987.

He was also retired as captain in the U.S. Army and served in the Korean War.

He leaves behind a powerful example of a life lived with integrity, faith, perseverance, humility, generosity and love. He was an example of Proverbs 22: “A good name is more desirable than great riches.”
