Myra Nadine Schwartz

It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of a devoted mother, grandmother, sister, aunt and friend. Myra Nadine Schwartz, age 88, passed away peacefully on Saturday, October 17, 2026, in Forsyth, Georgia.

Nadine Schwartz was born on February 11, 1938, in Columbus, Georgia. She graduated from Newnan High School in 1956. She later moved to College Park, Georgia where she raised her children. She and her husband, Ken, eventually settled in Forsyth, Georgia, where they owned and operated a bar and grill named the Tramp In. Nadine and Ken enjoyed traveling, especially visiting family in Florida and attending I.B.E.W. reunions.

Nadine is survived by her son Gary Schwartz (Gina), grandchildren Ivy Morris, Emily Morris, Amy Morris, Cody Schwartz (Brooke), Zach Schwartz and great grandson River Schwartz; brother Ken Gillespie (Pat) and numerous nieces and nephews and extended family and dear friends and all those whose lives were touched by her love and kindness.
