Dorothy Sports McVeigh Baugh
BRUNSWICK – With great sadness, the McVeigh family announces the death of
Dorothy Sports McVeigh Baugh of Brunswick. Dorothy, who died peacefully
on January 27, 2022, was 94. She was born on June 28, 1927, to Linnie
Darnella Sports, in Columbia, SC. The widow of Norman S. McVeigh, Jr.,
and Herman B. Baugh, she was also preceded in death by her beloved brother
Nyle T. Sports, Sr. A devoted homemaker, gardener, and divine scratch
biscuit maker, Dorothy had an enduring faith in God, and a selfless
devotion to family and friends. Among her many passions were music,
reading, pets, and country living. Professionally, her relaxed, gracious
personality and beautiful smile greeted customers at LaVerne's dress shop,
and the King and Prince Hotel gift shop, both of which she managed. She
also helped run a family grocery, and was a para-pro at Goodyear School.
Dorothy is dearly missed by her three children, Teresa McVeigh (Stephen
Looney) of Augusta, GA; Norman Shaw McVeigh, III (Patricia) of Brunswick,
GA; and Nyle Anthony McVeigh of Frankfort, KY; grandchildren, Erin Vandre
(Jim), and Katie Carter (Cameron); great-grandchildren, Dallin, Olivia and
Will Vandre; and Grace, Blake, Lucy and Austin Carter. Arrangements are
under the direction of Brunswick Memorial Park funeral home. Planning is
underway for a Memorial Service and celebration of Dorothy's long life,
and legacy.
