Pilot Mountain man marks 100th birthday

Nov. 1 was a big day for Spencer “Pa” Nelson. One of many days the centenarian has experienced. That’s because many friends and family members gathered that day to celebrate his 100th birthday. He was born on Nov. 1, 1926, in Pilot Mountain, to Peter and Daisy Nelson. In late December 1943, he enlisted in the United States Navy, where he served as a gunner’s mate until September 1948. After leaving the Navy, Nelson returned home to Pilot Mountain, where he met the love of his life, Helen Bateman. The two were married on April 28, 1949, beginning a marriage that would last just shy of 69 years. In 1950, Spencer began working for McLean Trucking Company. He remained with the company for more than 35 years, until it closed in January 1986. The couple became members of Brims Grove Baptist Church in 1969. His faith and church family have remained an important part of his life, and he continues to be a faithful member today, family members said. “Celebrating 100 years of Spencer’s life was a special occasion for his family and friends,” they said. “The Nelson family would like to thank everyone who joined them in celebrating this

Plans for Christmas parade unfold

The annual Mount Airy Christmas Parade on Nov. 21 will feature the usual holiday floats, marching groups and sparkling lights, but also the added attractions of Jeff and Sheri Easter and a first-ever “sensory-friendly area.” The Easters, who lead a popular Southern gospel group and have ties to the legendary Easter Brothers locally, will serve as grand marshals for the parade scheduled for 5 p.m. that day through the downtown area. Meanwhile, a special area will be designated along the procession route to accommodate onlookers who are sensitive to loud noises. “Because we’ve had a few complaints about the sirens and everything,” Gail Hiatt of the sponsoring Downtown Business Association said of the sounds emanating from public safety vehicles in the parade along with horns and other loud noises. “We’ve never done this before,” Hiatt added regarding the quiet zone. Applications available The Christmas parade typically includes elaborate floats by local businesses, high school marching bands, fire trucks, unique vehicles, festive costumed characters, community organizations, sports teams, churches, local elected officials and others.
