I see in the Paris News today the obit of Horace Weldon Stinson, 68 of Paris, born in Avery. He has 5 surviving brothers, James, Boss, Melvin, Joe and Irb Stinson (I thing the last one is Irby Stinson that was mayor of Avery the when I as on the city council. He does have other surviving sisters and children. Hummmmm, the obit is confusing to be as to if the siblings are deceased or living, but I think living. His wife died in 1988. The preacher officiating at the service is Bro. Jim Elsom of Paris, is a very good friend of mine. Bro Elsom will be 80 in August. The name "Boss" was recently mentioned on this board. I also see the obit of Allie Blance Holder, 86, of Decatur, formerly of Avery. Her deceased husband was Amos Holder. I wonder if Amos was a brother to Enos M (Gid) Holder of Avery that was buried at Savannah Cemetery in 1999. Jim G
