Mrs. S.A. Hawthorne Dies at Piedmont
Mrs. Sunie Alma Hawthorne
died at her home, 18 Hayne Street,
Piedmont, Saturday morning at 2:30
o'clock. Her death has cast a great gloom
over the community of Piedmont
for she has resided there for
25 years and during this time has
made many friends and has been an
ardent worker for the upbuilding of
the community and the furtherance
of Christian work. She was a member
of the Baptist church and was
identified with all of its organizations
and enterprises.
Mrs. Hawthorne is survived by her
husband, J.E. Hawthorne; her father,
Drayton Couch; one daughter,
Mrs. J.F. Davenport of Piedmont;
two sons, William Earle Hawthorne
and Hayden Elijah Hawthorne;
three sisters, Mrs Corrie Duncan of
Greenville, Mrs Lida Barbre of
Piedmont and Mrs. Mary West of
Fork Shoals; three brothers, William
Couch of Piedmont, Perry Couch of
Pelzer and David Couch of Rock Hill.
The funeral will be held at Piedmont
Baptist Church, Rev. J.E. Graham
officiating. Interment will be
at Rose Hill Cemetery.

When interviewed in 2014, Sunie's
granddaughters recalled that thanks
to her exceptional seamstress skills,
Sunie was often the person in the
community that people sought out when
they needed new clothes to be made for
their deceased family members.
She was remembered as often working
tirelessly late into the night sewing
clothes for families living in and
around Piedmont, SC.
