A.G. Putman

A.G. Putman, 88, of Sophia, NC, went to be with the Lord on Friday, September 5, 2025, at Hospice Home of Randolph County, surrounded by his loving family.

Born on January 9, 1937, in Mountain City, Tennessee, A.G. was the son of the late Fred Putman and the late Elizabeth Ann Arney Putman. He proudly served his country in the U.S. Army for two years before beginning a long and dedicated career in the furniture industry, which brought him to High Point, NC, in 1959.

A.G. had a deep love for the outdoors. He especially enjoyed fishing—often alongside his brothers—and playing golf. Above all, he loved the Lord and his family. A faithful servant, A.G. was a member of Sophia Baptist Church for 33 years, and prior to that, a devoted member of Woodlawn Baptist Church in High Point for 31 years.

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his brothers, Johnny Putman and David Putman.
