Alta Lamoin Brannam, 79, of Dover, Arkansas passed away July 10,2026. She was born on November 1,1946 in Magazine, Arkansas to John Henry Brannam and Bessie Jewel Wilson Brannam.

She was the daughter to migrant workers and traveled extensively across the United States as a child. She liked to tell stories about all their adventures.

Her house was filled with what she loved most, her family. She will be greatly missed by all who know her. You were always invited in to have a seat, eat a meal, stay the night, or make a pallet on the floor.
