Margaret Ann Brannon

She was born on January 12, 1933, and was a graduate of DuPont High School in the Class of 1951. She was a former resident of Campbells Creek and a longtime resident of the Huntington area. She was retired from the Columbia Gas Transmission Corporation and a member of the former Coal Fork United Methodist Church.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Phillip Earl Armstrong and Margaret Irene Armstrong (Dabney) and her three sisters: Loretta, Virginia, and Marion.

She is survived by her husband of 57 years, James L. (Jim) Brannon and a host of nieces and nephews from the Armstrong and Brannon sides of her family.

She was an avid animal lover and freely contributed to numerous animal advocacy programs and rescue shelters. She was a former Red Cross volunteer, a longtime Red Cross blood donor, and senior center/assisted living facility volunteer. She was a singer with the Charleston chapter of the Sweet Adelines, an international women’s chorus and performing organization. She was an outspoken supporter of all law enforcement, our U.S. military, all things West Virginia, and a very proud American!

In accordance with her fervent wishes, she will be cremated and desired no formal funeral or committal services. A private memorial service will be held at a future date.

The family wishes to thank the kind and caring staff of the Ridgemont assisted living facility and of the Kanawha Hospice.
