Shorty the Squirrel
Shorty the Squirrel

The Legend of Shorty the Squirrel — Shorty lived outside the Smith County courthouse for 15 years 1948-1963. He was a panhandler and a beggar, but beloved by the town — and particularly by Miss Geneva Pillow, who fed him daily. The citizens of Tyler honored Shorty with free medical care, a special pedestrian crossing, and a lower speed limit on Broadway — all with the goal of prolonging his life. But no squirrel lives forever (or even for very long) and Shorty died in 1963.He was buried in a park across the street from the courthouse, his grave surrounded by a brick wall, marked by a Georgia granite headstone engraved with his likeness. A replacement squirrel was quickly run over by a car (another testament to Shorty’s genius for survival). With no one to fill his snack-grubbing shoes, Shorty’s legend grew. Paul Harvey told his story on the radio. He became even more famous in death than in life. On Monday, Shorty’s “remains” were ‘dug up,’ revealing a plastic squirrel skeleton that had been buried near the gravestone. This was a prank on the Tyler mayor. In all seriousness, the City wanted to save Shorty’s remains during the Downtown, Tyler renovation. ❣️In the new Downtown, Tyler renovations shorty will be honored with a large 3-foot statue.
