  <mods:abstract>One of Shrewsbury's most famous residents in the twentieth century was Anthony A. Borgatti, Jr. (Spag). Born the oldest of four children on February 29, 1916, in Worcester (Mass.), he opened a tire and battery store on Route 9 in Shrewsbury (Mass.) in 1934 that by 1939 had expanded to hardware and other items, and since then, was known by Anthony's nickname, Spag's. He married Olive Lutz on November 24, 1940 in St. Anne's Church. Together they raised three daughters, Carol, Jean and Sandra. Olive died on December 28, 1990, and Spag died on February 23, 1996. Oil portraits of both Borgattis by Worcester artist Leon Hovesepian now hang in the Shrewsbury Public Library.</mods:abstract>
