JOYCE BRANNEN NETTLES

Joyce Brannen Nettles, a lifelong Savannahian, died unexpectedly at her home Monday, April 17, 2006. Her husband, Mr. M. Clifton Nettles III and her father, Mr. William F. Brannen, predeceased her.
Joyce was a dedicated caregiver, who worked since 1993 at Candler Hospital as a social worker. She was a graduate of both South Georgia College and Armstrong State College. She was a member of White Bluff United Methodist Church for more than 30 years.
The highlights of her working career were the 10 years she spent teaching preschool at Tiponi Nursery School. She loved teaching the little ones, now all of whom are grown and have children of their own. Another exciting time in her working life was in 1968 when she was a flight attendant based out of Miami for Delta Air Lines for one year.
She is survived by her three daughters, Mrs. Christy Nettles David, Ms. Barbara Allison Nettles and Ms. Debra Ashley Nettles, a son in law, Mr. Brian David and her two beloved grandchildren, Will and Meg David. Also surviving are, her mother, Mrs. Eunice Brannen, a sister, Ms. Diane Brannen Rountree, two brothers, Mr. William F. Brannen Jr. and wife, Gail and Mr. H. Randall Brannen and wife, Diane, and her nieces and nephews, Jim Rountree, Will Brannen, Brooke Brannen, Rose Brannen and Randall Brannen.
Joyce was a devoted mother and friend to all, but was legendary for her grandmothering. Known as “Juice” to her grandchildren, she would hold “Camp Juice” sessions where they tackled all sorts of fun and adventures.
Memorial Services will be Wednesday, April 19, 2006 at 11 a.m. at White Bluff United Methodist Church.
