Horace Dewey Trammel, 91, passed away on Sunday, February 5, 2023, at a hospital in north Georgia following a period of declining health. Born Feb. 3, 1932, in Dawsonville, Georgia, Horace never left the Georgia mountains and lived in Dawson, Forsyth, and Gilmer counties. He grew up plowing fields on a sharecropper’s farm, and his family was poor like most in north Georgia.
