14. | Dixie Nethery (3.Drayton2, 1.Amanda1) was born on 21 Jan 1919 in Milam, Sabine County, Texas; died on 9 Apr 2019 in Nacogdoches County, Texas; was buried in Milam Cemetery, Milam, Sabine County, Texas. Notes:
Dixie Nethery Sparks was born January 21, 1919, in Milam, TX, the youngest child of Louise and Drayton Nethery. Dixie attended school in Milam, on the site of present-day Bethany Baptist Church and later attended high school in Hemphill. Dixie's higher education earned her degrees in music, English, and counseling. She began her career as an educator in Center and later moved back home to Milam and became a high school teacher in Hemphill. In addition to classroom teaching, she gave piano lessons in her home to local children and directed church music.
Dixie's teaching career ended in 1961 when, out of necessity, she took over sole management of Sparks Grocery, a business formerly owned by her father. For over fifty years, she operated a business that served the needs of area residents. Shelves were stocked with food, produce, medicines, gadgets, and books. Racks held fabric, shoes, and toys- anything that can now be purchased at Walmart. Credit was extended when times were hard. Christmas would find her selling and wrapping gifts for last-minute shoppers. She continued to operate Sparks Grocery until early in 2016. By that time, the shelves were mostly bare and shoppers were few. But, folks would continue to stop by for a free cup of coffee and to chat. For several years she would say, "Well, I guess I need to retire one of these days."
Though Dixie never had children of her own, she enjoyed sharing in the lives of her extended family and local children who frequented her store. She always made sure that their school pictures were displayed above the cash register.
In addition to her parents, Dixie was predeceased by an infant brother and sister; former husband, Howard Sparks; her sister, Verlyn Nethery Owens; brother-in-law, Max Owens; and great nephew, Steve Owens.
Dixie spent the last three years of her life in a care facility in Nacogdoches. Following a brief time of illness, Dixie entered her heavenly home on April 9, 2019. She is survived by nieces and nephews, generations of cousins, countless friends, former students, and her family from Magnolia Court.
Funeral services for Dixie will begin at 2:00 p.m. Friday, April 12, 2019 in Starr Funeral Home Chapel with Bro. Mike Tieman and Bro. Robert Shaddock officiating.
Visitation will be held from 11:00 a.m. until service time.
Burial will follow services in Milam Cemetery under the direction of Starr Funeral Home with Gene Nethery, Jim Nethery, Felix Holmes, Raymond Edgar, Robby Roberts, Robbie Hudspeth, and Marty Griffin serving as pallbearers.

38. | Cheryl Marie Nethery (28.Living3, 9.Addie2, 1.Amanda1) was born on 21 Apr 1969 in Houston, Harris County, Texas; died on 1 Jul 2024 in Webster, Wood County, Texas; was buried on 9 Jul 2024 in Milam Cemetery, Milam, Sabine County, Texas. Notes:
Cheryl Marie Nethery, aged 55, passed away Monday, July 1, 2024, in Webster, Texas after a long illness. Born on April 21, 1969, in Houston, Texas to Robert Gene Nethery and Annie DeAlva Davis Nethery, Cheryl was a spirited individual whose life was marked by her generosity and humor.
Cheryl graduated from South Houston High School in 1987 and later achieved both her bachelor's and master's degrees while working full-time. Her academic dedication paved the way for a successful career. Cheryl was a respected HR Professional, initially with Brown and Root and KBR, before she found her passion in the Oil Field Drilling Business as a Regional HR Manager.
Beyond her professional life, Cheryl was deeply committed to animal welfare, often supporting animal charities, rescues, and shelters. Her love for animals was evident when she adopted her first Boxer puppy, Sarge, in 2007, which sparked her enduring affection for the breed. Cheryl's home was never without a Boxer, her most recent companion being her beloved dog and closest pal, Libby.
Cheryl's compassion extended beyond animals; she was always ready to assist anyone in need, making no distinction between friends and strangers. Her sense of humor was a source of joy for those around her, capable of lifting spirits in any situation. She had a heart as big as her home state of Texas with a sense of humor to match it. She could make you laugh even when you didn't feel like laughing.
She worshipped at the First Baptist Church of Genoa. Her faith and the community there were integral parts of her life.
