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
