The sister of a man killed near Swainsboro in 2002 is planning an event in hopes that it will raise awareness of unsolved murders and other questionable deaths. Jeannie Willene Ellis Bryant, of Metter, has organized the Keeping the Memory Alive in Georgia event, scheduled for Saturday, Sept. 23, in Swainsboro, as a way to remember and honor her brother, Terry Brooks “Bubba” Rewis, who was found dead off Highway 56 in Emanuel County 16 years ago. Bryant doesn’t feel her brother’s death was accidental and has been struggling since then to find out who hit and killed him.
