John Allen Bagwell Sr.

Mr. John Allen Bagwell, Sr., 73, of 105 Roxanne Street Williamston SC, passed away unexpectedly Thursday, March 27, 2025 at Greenville Memorial Hospital.  Mr. Bagwell was born April 11, 1951 in Greenville SC, a son of the late Jake and Beatrice Pittman Bagwell. Survivors include one son John Allen Bagwell Jr. of the home, two daughters, Sheila Bagwell Bates (Jeff) of Union, SC; April Bagwell Austin (Thomas) of Duncan, SC; two brothers Jimmy Bagwell (Sandy) of Orlando, FL; Gary Bagwell of Piedmont, SC; one sister Linda Bagwell of Piedmont, SC; and six grandchildren: Cali Bagwell, Presley Bagwell, Brandon Bates, Tyler Bates (Angie), Claire Austin and Levi Austin. 
Johnny, as he was known to family and old friends, was a painter by trade and took great pride in his work.  His children have fond memories with him of browsing the flea markets looking for collectibles, listening to Steve Miller Band, and looking for shark teeth on the beach.  Despite an accident years ago that took his senses of taste and smell, he was known for his delicious cooking and making the best tasting boiled peanuts and beef jerky around! Most importantly, Johnny was of the Baptist faith and came to accept Jesus as his Lord and Savior while attending the church where his longtime friend Rudy Halstead is the Pastor.  For this, his family is most grateful.
A memorial service is planned for April 13, 2025 at 3:00 pm, two days after his 74th birthday, at Agape Baptist Church 198 New Cut Rd. Piedmont, SC.
