She was educated at the Pond’s School which was a one room school house and Rockwell High School. Mrs. Brittain worked at Cannon Mills, Leisure Lads, and Sharels as a seamstress. A lady of great faith, she was the last living charter member of Tabernacle Baptist Church of Salisbury which was established in 1954. She was an avid gardener of vegetables and flowers and enjoyed her hobbies of quilting and sewing. Daughter Jean said her mother always said “I Love You too” back to her until her last few days of life, then she would only say “I Love” and indeed she did. Mrs. Brittan was able to profess her love to her family to her last breath. What a beautiful loving soul she was throughout her whole life. Preceding her in death was her husband, Walter Lee Brittain; grandson Anthony Brittain; brothers, Coy L. Morgan, Gilmer Morgan, Reather Morgan, Felix Morgan and Fred Morgan and sisters, Eva Morgan Sides and Beatrice Morgan Goodman.
