Diane K. Brammer


Diane Kay Brammer, 70, formerly of Charlotte, died peacefully on Sunday, December 2, 2018 in Marshall.  Diane was born September 15, 1948, the daughter of George and Barbara (Lewellyn) Radee.  In her early years, Diane loved being outdoors in the sunlight and dancing. She married Phillip Brammer, and the two lived in countless places throughout the country as they followed Phil’s career with Owens-Illinois. Diane also worked 10 years with the company in Charlotte, before settling in to raise their daughters. Phil’s coworkers always looked forward to Diane’s delicious baked goods. She was a talented cook and enjoyed crafting and fishing. In their retirement, Diane and Phil spent years in Texas, Florida, and their final years in Charlotte. They enjoyed family time vacationing all across the country and visiting the many friends from their past hometowns.  Above all, Diane loved her family.

Diane is survived by her loving daughters, Tonya Clough of Climax and Cindy Trumble of Fort Collins, Colo.; two grandsons, Davey Clough and Eric Trumble; sister, Vicki Wright; brothers, Toby (Rhonda) Radee and George (Kathy) Radee; and several nieces and nephews.  

She was predeceased by her husband, Phillip Brammer in 2017, and her parents.

A memorial service was held Thursday, December 6, 2018 at First Baptist Church of Charlotte, with Ray Black officiating.  

If desired, the family suggests memorial contributions to the Michigan Parkinson’s Foundation or the Dementia Society of America.
