Paul Worth Brewer
Paul Worth Brewer, 81, of Lynchburg, passed away Monday, March 15, 2010, in Virginia Baptist Hospital after an extended illness. He was the husband of Peggy Lassiter Brewer for 60 years.
Born Aug. 18, 1928, in High Point, N.C., he was a son of the late Hal Worth and Minnie Manning Brewer. He was a graduate of High Point University and received his master's degree from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. Paul was a very much loved principal of Brookville High School from 1969 to 1990. After retirement, Paul enjoyed watching any kind of sport, perhaps while smoking a cigar. He also enjoyed knocking around the ball on the golf course and really enjoyed taking his family to the beach and spending quality time with them while relaxing under the sun and getting wet with the ocean waves. He was a regular attending member of the "morning coffee club" (also known as the "liar's club") at McDonalds on Timberlake Road, where he usually helped solve many world problems and talked about his unfailing love for his "tar heal" heritage. Paul had a special love for his grandchildren and was probably his most favorite past time. He was a former member of the Brookville Ruritan and Lion's club and was an active member of Heritage United Methodist Church.
In addition to his wife, Peggy, Paul is survived by two sons, Craig Brewer and his wife, Cathy, and Michael Brewer and his wife, Anne, all of Lynchburg; two daughters, Lynn Brewer, of Lynchburg, and JoAnn Ramsey, of Salem; seven grandchildren, "Nikki " Bagwell, Eli Brewer, Maggie Brewer, Blake Brewer, Brandon Shoemaker, Colby Brewer and Joey Shoemaker; and two great-grandchildren, Christopher and Cole Slusher.
He was preceded in death by two grandchildren, Dylan Brewer and Emily Brewer.
A celebration of Paul's life and faith will be held at 1 p.m. Wednesday, March 17, 2010, at Timberlake United Methodist Church with the Rev. Riley Smith and the Rev. Alan Combs officiating. The family will receive friends at the church immediately following the service.
The family wishes to thank the Timberlake United Methodist Church family for allowing the use of their facility to accommodate the anticipated large attendance of Paul's service.
Memorial contributions may be made to Heritage United Methodist Church-Building Fund, 582 Leesville Road, Lynchburg, VA 24502, or Brookville High School-Athletic Field House Fund, 100 Laxton Road, Lynchburg, VA 24502.
