Mary P. Hair
- Clemson, SC
Mary Price Hair, cherished wife of Dr. Judson E. Hair of 150 Down's Boulevard in Clemson, SC went home to her Lord on Thursday night, March 11 after a long battle with Parkinson's disease. Born in Greenwood, SC on September 8, 1925 and a native of Elberton, GA, Mrs. Hair lived much of her life with her husband and family in Clemson before retiring to Naples, FL and later Highlands, NC. Recently she and her husband returned to Clemson to reside at Clemson Downs Retirement Community among many of their old friends.
Mrs. Hair was well known for her giving spirit and desire to help others. She had a unique ability to sense need in others and never failed to try to meet that need whether it was members of her immediate family, her church family or workmen digging in the street outside her home in Highlands. She loved to bring people together. She was famous for her white elephant dinner parties and her impromptu gatherings in her Highlands home. The Helping Hands group she started at First Baptist Church of Highlands, NC was the beginning of many dear friendships. Even though she was at Clemson Downs for a short time, she left an indelible mark on her neighbors, other residents and staff. Her indomitable spirit and joy for life, in spite of debilitating health issues, was an inspiration and blessing to all who knew her.
Mrs. Hair is survived by her husband of 63 years, Dr. Judson E. Hair, daughter Anne (Killilea) and her husband Kevin of Naples, FL, sons Judson E. Hair, Jr. and wife Betty of Raleigh, NC, Harrison Hair and wife April of Orlando, FL, and Jim Hair of Cashiers, NC. She also is survived by her cherished grandchildren, Patrick, Christopher, Jessica and Caitlin. She will be so missed by them all. She was predeceased by her mother and father, Jesse and Daisy Price and her brother, William Price.
A small ceremony will be held at the Corley Center at Clemson Downs on Saturday, March 13 at 3 pm for family and local friends. A Celebration of her life will be held later in the spring in Highlands, NC. Memorial donations in lieu of flowers can be made to one of her favorite charities: The Salvation Army, Lakeland Teen Challenge, 6754 S. Carter Road, Lakeland, FL 33813 or any of the foundations doing research to find a cure for Parkinson's disease.
