Mona was born in Martinsville, VA. and later graduated from Reidsville High School in 1947. She worked for Sears and Roebuck in Greensboro for 25 years. She was a member of Spring Garden Friends Church where she sang in the choir and participated in missionary work.
She is survived by her daughter Donna Hiltzheimer and her husband, Robert of Little River, SC; two brothers, Chester Pegram of Brown Summit, NC and Wayne Pegram of China Grove, NC.
She was preceded in death by her husband Alton Eugene Brannon. Also preceding her in death were two sisters, Gail Hoecherl and Joan Reece and brother Ralph Pegram.
She had resided in the nursing home for over ten years and was loved by all the nurses and staff. She rarely complained and had a sassy personality. Sometimes, a little too sassy! Every time they thought she was totally unaware, she let them know she wasn’t missing a word. She loved all the music venues and participate in the morning “Dance Parties” even in her wheel chair.
Over the last ten years she had become my BFF and I loved every minute I spent with her. I will miss her so much.
In lieu of flowers, the family would appreciate memorials to The Alzheimers Association by calling 1-800-272-3900 or going on alz.org to donate. Please be sure to donate in memory of Mona Brannon.
