Tommie L. Sawyer, 95, passed away peacefully on Saturday, April 18, 2020 in Lansing, Michigan. A lifelong resident of Ingham County, Tommie was born January 25, 1925 in Bell Oak to Elbert and Goldie (Fisher) Sawyer.

He was preceded in death by his parent; his siblings, Cleo Hill, Clinton Saywer, and Billie Sawyer; and a great grandson, Caleb Turner.
He will be lovingly remembered by his wife of 73 years, Luana (Monroe) Sawyer; his children, Shirley (James) LaPine, Thomas (Sherry) Sawyer, and Luana (Eddie) Fuller; his 11 grandkids, 30 great-grandkids, and 2 great-great-grandkids; as well as many nieces, nephews, and dear friends.
