Martha “Marty” Ann Lanning Munger, 62, of Mountain City, passed away Thursday, July 13, 2017.
Marty was a loving mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother and treasured her family most of all. She worked in the construction industry and all that knew her knew how much that she cared for others. Marty was always willing to lend a helping hand and would have given the “shirt off her back” to anyone in need. She never met a stranger and cared for everyone that she met, always seeking ways to help, in spite of her own struggles with addiction.
She is survived by her parents, Ernest and Joanne Lanning, of Lexington, North Carolina; two daughters, Amber Munger, of Mountain City, and Lakeshia Gil, of Tiger; two sisters, Debbie McDaniel, of Rockwell, North Carolina, and Lisa Johnson, of Lexington; three grandchildren, William Munger, Isaac Lewis, Brooklyn Allgary; and one great-grandchild, Georgia Frankum.
A memorial service was held Saturday, July 22, 2017, at 2 p.m. at the chapel of the Beck Funeral Home, with the Revs. Oliver Rice and Joel Winchester officiating.
In lieu of flowers, donations should be made in Marty’s memory to The Light House Mission, P.O. Box 355, Rabun Gap, Georgia 30568.
Beck Funeral Home, in Clayton, was in charge of the arrangements. An online memorial register book is available at www.beckfuneralhome.com.
