Sid Sprague's son dies

Retired printer Sid Sprague's son, Steven Spragg, 38, of Middleburg, Virginia, died Tuesday, May 4. Services will be Saturday at the Purcellville, Virginia Baptist Church with the burial in Ebenezer Cemetery in Round Hill, Virginia.

Steven's mother, Sandra Sprague, died while Sid was living in Pawleys Island, South Carolina. Sid later married again and moved to Loveland, Colorado. The Spragues moved from Cuyahoga Falls to Pawleys Island more than a decade ago.

BJ business department retiree Harold McElroy and retired printer Dick Latshaw followed the Spragues to Pawleys Island. They lived within a few blocks of each other. After Sandra died, Sid married the widow of a couple who were friends with the Spragues. They moved to Colorado to be near Sid's second wife's family.

Harold's granddaughter, Reagan Lacole "Doo" Edwards, 5 months, died in Akron on April 23.
