Thomas Pinckney Lovelace
Augusta, Ga - Thomas Pinckney Lovelace passed away on Sunday, April 9, 2017 after a lengthy illness. He was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas P. Lovelace of Americus, Georgia and husband of Peggy D. Lovelace for 58 years. He leaves to cherish his memory a son, Thomas P. Lovelace and wife, Frances, a daughter, Ginny P. Lovelace and husband, Jon J. Taylor, and grandchildren, Thomas P Lovelace (Melanie), Johnston G. Lovelace (Alexa), Benton P. Lovelace, Sydney Marie Lovelace and Rachel M. Taylor, and great-granddaughter, Evelyn G. Lovelace.
Tom graduated from The University of Georgia where he was a member of Pi Kappa Alpha Social Fraternity and Alpha Kappa Psi Business Fraternity. After graduation he began his distinguished career with "Old Mr. Pete" Knox Enterprises in Thomson, Georgia. In 1963, Tom moved his family to Augusta where he continued his career as a Realtor, Broker and Appraiser. He was a man of many interests and hobbies. He especially enjoyed his coin collection and making the rounds of the coin shops enjoying the fellowship and conversations there. Tom was proud of his Southern heritage and was a member of the Sons of Confederacy, an expert on Civil War History and enjoyed the Civil War Roundtable Meetings. He was a 38 year member of West Lake Country Club. Tom was a voracious reader of History and his friends enjoyed his willingness to share his books as well as his stories with them. We must not forget his love of cards...gin rummy and liar’s poker, especially.
A memorial service will be held Saturday, April 15, 2017, 11:00 A.M. in the chapel of Thomas Poteet & Son, with Fr. Michael Hull officiating. The family will receive friends one hour prior to the service at the funeral home. Honorary pallbearers will be Charles Crisp, Jack B. Smith, Charles Royal, William Eades, Jim Burton, Larry Lucree, Gerald Jones, Oliver Owens, Hugh Hollar and Harry Moxley.
