April showers brings May flowers on May 15, 1957 a son was destines to be born to the late Raymond Lee Brannon Jr and Gladys Brannon, who they named Kermit Lee Brannon in Cushing OK. To that union eight children were born; "RL" Raymond Lee Brannon III, Elweeder, Esther, Leon, Diana Brannon and a very special grandfather, the late "Daddy Ray" Raymond Lee Brannon Sr, wh proudly served as a Cushing police officer. Kermit leaves to cherish his loving big brother who loved Kermit dearly, Jimmy Louis Brannon, Romana and a very over protective ;oving big sister who would move heaven and earth to meet any and every need her baby brother may have had, even if he had just gotten mad at her for whatever reason. But he'd call the next day asking her fpr something or other to do something for him and you could bet you're bottom dollar she was going to answer his call and take care of whatever need he had that would be none other than bif sister Pamelo Jo Brannon Smith-Horn [Eddie]. That's just how much Pamela Jo loved her baby brother who she called "Tramp" Kermit. Kermit completed his formal education in Phoenix, AZ. After Kermit completed high school he met and married his sweetheart Samia Wilson Brannon.
