Grandmother of Jane Shelton Stembridge, Hansel (Hank) Stembridge, Billy Spitz, Tommy Spitz, Ann Spitz Holliman, Barbara (Babs) Day Bruns, Virginia (Ginny) Day Dunstan, Louis Shelton Sawyer, III, and Katherine Sawyer Bailey.
Nell Sawyer (Sawsaw) was my grandmother, my father's mother. She was the first of three grandparents to die in 1961 when I was six. I don't remember her much, but I do remember that she was a tiny woman, barely reaching five feet tall with very blue eyes. My father loved her biscuits so much that she made one plate for him alone and another plate for the rest of the family. Her husband, Shep, Sr., died ten months later. He gave up on life without her.
**A sincere thank you to Jane Eubanks for sponsoring my grandmother's memorial.
