Norwood Cleveland Stone, Jr. "Sonny", 72, of Greenville, South Carolina went to be with the Lord,
Thursday, February 17, 2022. Sonny was born in Greenville, South Carolina to the late Norwood
Cleveland Stone, Sr. and Mary Francinia Rouse Stone. He is survived by his siblings, Katherine S.
Jernigan, Randall T. Stone, Judith A. Stone, Gwendolyn S. Westmoreland, many nieces, nephews,
and cousins and his long-time companion of 19 years, his cat Precious.
He was preceded in death by his parents Norwood and Mary Stone.
Sonny was an insurance broker who had once worked at the family-owned insurance business, E. Roy Stone Insurance Company, which for many years was located in the bottom of the Poinsett Hotel (now The Westin) on Main Street.
He was an avid bowler who bowled three perfect 300 games and received several awards acknowledging his many accomplishments. Although Sonny’s declining health prevented him from bowling in recent years, he still enjoyed completing crossword puzzles - in pen.
A memorial service will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to
Greenville Humane Society. Family members can be reached at their respective homes.
