ArchAnna McLellan Steadham, 60, of Greenville, passed away Saturday, May 21, 2022.

Born in Anderson, SC, she was a daughter of Ann Rogers McLellan and the late Henslee “Bill” Clifford McLellan.

In her mother’s words, ArchAnna was “a rebel, a trip, and above all, my joy!” and all who knew her shared that sentiment. She loved her family immensely, and always full of jokes and joy, was the one who provided laughter and fun any time they were all together.

Those who has the pleasure of calling ArchAnna their friend were told right away to call her “Archie.” Whether you met her as a child or an adult, her friendship would be everlasting. Even when she wasn’t physically close to share a “big ole hug” she was always there with a phone call or text to make you laugh and remind you of her love.
ArchAnna was passionate about taking care of those less fortunate. To honor her many hours of community service, memorials may be made to Jaycee Camp Hope, 415 Charlie White Trail, Pendleton, SC 29670; or to The Greenville Humane Society, 305 Airport Rd, Greenville, SC 29607.

In addition to her mother, she is survived by her brothers, William Albert “Bill” and Clifford Rogers McLellan; sister, Kathryn S. “Suzy” Cato; step-grandchildren, Quinn and Carson; many adored nieces and nephews; and her beloved dog children, LuLu and Ace. ArchAnna also leaves behind loving members of the Steadham Family.

In addition to her father, ArchAnna was preceded in death by her husband, Barry Steadham.

A visitation will be held Tuesday, May 31, 2022, from 5:00 p.m. until 7:00 p.m. at Thomas McAfee Funeral Homes, Downtown. The memorial service will be held Wednesday, June 1st at 2:00 p.m. at Pendleton Presbyterian Church with a reception to follow.

We are deeply saddened by the sudden and tragic loss of ArchAnna! While I first met her at Winthrop thru Greg Fulmer, a mutual close friend ....our lives had reconnected when she married Barry Steadham. She was very devoted to her Clemson Tigers, family and friends. I could see it in her eyes and smile whenever she mentioned those she loved. Because of my longtime and close friendship with Michelle Steadham League and Greg Fulmer we reconnected. I'm totally disabled myself with MS, and just weeks ago she sat with me several times so that my brother could drive my 91 year old Mom to her doctor appointment, I felt so grateful for her willingness to come to the rescue and sit with me. she touched my life in a very kind and generous way. She will be missed here on Earth, but in heaven she will be in HIS ARMS and the ones she loves who arrived before her!

Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Arch Anna was a beautiful person who could light up any room. My prayers are with her family and friends.

Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

Bill and family, Fortunately for me, I met ArchAnna through my cousin, Bill Ellis, and loved her immediately! Told her that first day that it seemed we'd known each other for a long time...probably something that she heard from others, so engaging was she. Had many conversations with her through Bill's illness; she was always loving and kind. He treasured their steadfast friendship and knew he could rely on her. My prayers are for your peace and comfort, knowing that her physical absence will be difficult. Her love for her family was obvious.

Please accept our most heartfelt sympathies for your loss... Our thoughts are with you and your family during this difficult time.

ArchAnna had such a beautiful soul. I will always remember her kindness and smile. PHS Class of 80 will definitely miss you

Mrs. McLellan and family, Lonnie and I are so sorry that ArchAnna was taken away from you. She was a joy and delight to know and be around. We can not expressed how much she meant to Mrs. Clayton and all of us. She was definitely a God send for her and us. We will be out of town next week but you and your family will be in our thoughts and prayers.

To the McLellan Family, As we celebrated our class reunion 4 weeks ago, Archie was full of her laughter and smiles. Looking back, we started 2nd grade, went on through high school. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. PHS '80

Despite her short life, Archie’s life was a life well lived!. There is no doubt when she reached heaven, Archie was greeted by Barry & her daddy. Condolences to the McLellan family.

The world is a bit dimmer without this shining light. My sincere condolences and prayers for peace for this wonderful family. Love to you, Suzy…

Our deepest condolence to the family of ArchAnna McLellan Steadham. Although we did not know ArchAnna personally, we are neighbors of ArchAnna's mother, Ann McLellan who live across the street from us. We were so sad to learn of this and our thoughts and prayers are with the family. Ann and Chuck Middleton

Arch was one in a million. She didn’t have a mean bone in her body. God blessed her with the gift of love for her fellow man and a heart of gold to go with it. We met on the Big Island eons ago. I can still her her voice calling out to me “ALOHA Y’ALL!”. That accent used to stop customers in their tracks to see where it came from. She was my little sister from another mother. Jim and I will always cherish our time with Arch and Barry. May God welcome her home. I’m sure Barry is holding her tight in his arms now. The world became a sadder place with her here. I Love you little sis.

To ArchAnna’s family, My heart broke when I heard of ArchAnna’s passing. We first met in middle school and became good friends. She always had a big smile on her face and was so kind to everyone. In high school we were not only classmates but we were cheerleaders together. So many fun times. One memory stands out to me. One evening my brother let us use his car to go cruising around the Anderson Square before going to Mac’s Drive In to hang with our classmates. However, the car broke down on a back road a few miles from my home. We never made it to our destinations that evening. I was a little scared walking back to my house on those back roads (no cell-phone days) but Archie kept the mood light and we laughed all the way back home. Good times! I will never forget Archie and will be praying for you all during this difficult time. I love you ArchAnna and was truly blessed to have known you. With sincere condolences, Betty Murrah Gambrell

Deepest sympathy to all of ArchAnna's family! I pray that you will find comfort in good memories and will feel surrounded by God's love even in the midst of this sudden and terrible loss.

My heart is broken for you all. Archanna was so special in so many ways. She loved her family, her dogs, her friends, and life in general. She always was positive, smiling, laughing and having a great time. She will be greatly missed. My prayers are with you all now and in the days and weeks to come. Love you all. Cindy

Well done my dear friend, ArchAnna! Your time with us was incredibly short. You certainly made positive vibes happen start to finish with your life story and adventures during your time on this Earthly world! With a Tour de Force, my friend you filled it with joy, love, and life to all who knew you! Obit only scratches the very tip of the iceberg in what Archie meant to her family, friends, and others in the life she lived. I’m selfish, but all were blessed to be a part of ArchAnna’s life long parade! Archie’s love continues always! Aloha! Go Tigers 🐅 ❤️‍🩹💔💝🧡💜🧡

Dear Ann, Your heart is broken I am sure. I know ArchAnna from only this obit and it sounds like I missed a fabulous gal. May fond memories help to ease your grief. Many prayers will be lifted for you and your family.
