It’s official: J.E. Lincoln Saunders is now the chief administrative officer or No. 2 official at City Hall after Mayor Levar M. Stoney. Mr. Saunders, holding his year-old daughter, Story Hall-Saunders, and accompanied by his wife, Ashley Hall, is sworn in Tuesday by City Clerk Candice D. Reid, after City Council unanimously consented to the appointment by Mayor Stoney, holding the microphone. Mr. Saunders had been the acting CAO for nearly 11 months after his predecessor, Lenora Reid, suffered a stroke last year. In late August, Mayor Stoney announced Mr. Saunders as his choice to permanently fill the role after Ms. Reid formally retired. Mr. Saunders is to be paid nearly $200,000 a year. He has received mostly high marks since taking on the top administrative post that is essentially equivalent to city manager. He is the mayor’s most trusted confidante, having served as the mayor’s chief of staff during Mayor Stoney’s first four-year term.

This display of four panels tells the story of African-Americans whose bodies were stolen from graves, used as teaching tools for Richmond medical students before the Civil War and then discarded in a nearby well. Location of panels: Outside the auditorium of the Hermes A. Kontos Medical Sciences Building, 1217 E. Marshall St., on the medical campus of Virginia Commonwealth University. The bones of the unidentified people were found in a long-capped well in 1994 during the construction of the building. The university and two community committees set up by VCU have considered how to properly honor the remains that are now in custody of the state Department of Historic Resources. Dr. Peter Buckley, dean of the VCU School of Medicine, called the display the latest effort by the school to recognize the humanity of those involved and “to honor and demonstrate our respect for the lives of these ancestors.” The panels, from left to right, present a timeline of events involving the remains from 1844 to 2019.
