Lashun Pace of The Anointed Pace Sisters Passes Away

One of the greatest gospel singers of our time, Lashun Pace, has died. She was 60 years old. Pace, who was a key member of gospel vocal group The Anointed Pace Sisters, died on Monday morning (March 21). Pace's sister, Lydia Pace told 11Alive that LaShun had been in dialysis for five years waiting for a kidney transplant and had died of organ failure.
The singer-songwriter was known for her hit songs "I Know I Been Changed" and "Act Like You Know." Born Tarrian LaShun Pace, the Atlanta native first emerged on the music scene in the early '70s as a solo act but later joined talents with her siblings Duranice, Phyllis, June, Melonda, Dejuaii, Leslie, Latrice and Lydia to form the Grammy-nominated gospel group The Anointed Pace Sisters.
Shortly thereafter, Savoy Records signed Pace as a solo artist, and her debut album, He Lives - which featured her best-known song "I Know I've Been Changed" - reached No. 2 on Billboard's gospel charts in 1990. In 1996, her single "Act Like You Know" became her second big hit and, in fact, became a TikTok trend in February 2022.
Pace also had a brief appearance as the Angel of Mercy in the 1992 Steve Martin movie "Leap of Faith" and was inducted into the Christian Music Hall of Fame in 2007.
Prayers go out to her immediate family, including the renowned Anointed Pace Sisters. The legacy of LaShun Pace will live on through her music and ministry.
