Alvin A Sawyer

Alvin Alexander Sawyer was a bright light that God sent to illuminate the world on May 18, 1967. When God called him home, those who loved him were left with wonderful memories of that light and will carry his torch, always.

Alvin was born in Worchester, Massachusetts, and went on to live in several different cities throughout his life with his parents, Zetherina and Paul Worthey.

He confessed Christ at an early age and attended different churches throughout his life with his family.

Alvin will be remembered for his brilliant intellectual mind that led him to voraciously pursue his education. He received his high school diploma from Jacksonville High School in Jacksonville, Alabama. He attended the University of South Alabama, where he earned his Bachelor’s in Business. He didn’t stop there.

Alvin went on to earn his Master’s of Business Administration from the prestigious University of Texas in Austin, Texas. He was a proud alumnus who collected memorabilia and participated in alumni events whenever he could.

Alvin was known for his aptitude for numbers. He enjoyed a successful career with Kraft Foods as a product analyst in New Jersey. He would later move back to Mobile, Alabama, and pursue his entrepreneurial spirit, building a successful consulting business.

A strong, quiet soul, Alvin enjoyed talking about his passion, the Stock Market. He enjoyed sharing investment tips and analyzing the market for the next best investment. He was an avid reader and loved to learn. Upon his death, he was writing his autobiography to share with the world his most cherished thoughts and memories about his life’s journey and interests.

Alvin was loved by a very large extended family who will remember him fondly, including his parents, Paul and Zetherina Worthey of Mobile, AL; brothers, Jeffrey Sawyer and Paul E. Worthey, Jr., both of Memphis, TN; nephew, Jordan Sawyer of Mobile, AL; nieces, Zamone, Kennedy, and Kelcey Sawyer, all of Memphis, TN, great-nieces, Jade and Grey Sawyer, both of Mobile, AL; and a host of aunts, uncles, and cousins.

He was preceded in death by his sister, Linda Faye Sawyer.
