Margaret Alexander Branch Britton, known to her family and friends as "Peggy", died peacefully at Brighton Gardens in Raleigh on March 23, 2009. She was 101., Peggy was born at home on December 28, 1907 in Newport News, VA. She was the daughter of Alexander Newsome Branch and Hutoka West Branch., She is preceded in death by husband, R. Howard "Britt" Britton and a son, James Branch Britton who died in infancy, her four sisters, Virginia B. Bridges, Alma B. Patrick, Katherine B. Duffer, and Anna B. Gracey, and her brother, Alexander Newsome "Buddy" Branch, Jr. She is survived by daughters, Mary Britton Summey and her husband, Sam Summey of Chocowinity, and Margaret Dodd Britton of Seattle, WA; her three grandchildren, James Larry Carter, Jr. and his wife, Anne Keleher Carter of Charlotte, Emma Britton Carter of Raleigh, and Britton Wade Carter and his wife, Patricia McCarty Carter of Raleigh; her five great-grandchildren, Mary Anne Carter, James Michael Carter, Perry West Carter, Britton Wills Carter, and Quinn McCarty Carter., In 1929, Peggy graduated from the University of Mary Washington in Fredericksburg, VA, with a teaching degree, and began her teaching career in Arlington, VA. Her college education was made possible by a gift from a close family friend. While at Mary Washington she played many sports and was elected president of her class in both her junior and senior years. Early in her teaching career she met and married Howard, and they moved to his home in Marion, VA. Soon thereafter, Howard's job with Occidental Life Insurance Company brought the family to Raleigh and to their home on Nottingham Road. Peggy resided there for 61 years. During their marriage Howard and Peggy traveled extensively throughout the US and abroad., As a charter member of Ridge Road Baptist Church, Peggy was an active church leader over five decades. She worked to support many church activities, including organizing the Wednesday night suppers, managing the "bed baby" nursery, leading the Women's Missionary Union, and serving on the pulpit committee on behalf of the entire congregation. She also volunteered many years at some of Ridge Road's related ministries, including the Urban Ministry and Meals-on-Wheels. And while her daughters were young she was very involved in their school activities, and served as a senior volunteer into her later years., Throughout her long and full life, she kept herself young through regular exercise, healthy eating, and her many close friendships with people of all ages. Peggy's experiences through the Great Depression made her an original and creative recycler. She was an avid reader and long- time member of the Entre Nous Book Club, an avid bridge player (duplicate bridge was her favorite) who liked to play with good players, and a keen sports fan of ACC and NCAA basketball and baseball., Per her wishes, Peggy's body was donated to Duke University's Anatomical Gifts Program., A family visitation will be held 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Thursday evening, March 26th at Ridge Road Baptist Church, 2011 Ridge Road, Raleigh, NC.

in his honor will be held at 2 p.m. on Saturday, April 4, at Covenant Church, 1526 Skeet Club Road. Justin was born January 1, 1959, in Jackson Heights, Queens, New York, the eldest son of Jac and Rita D'Joseph. Justin attended James Caldwell High School in West Caldwell, New Jersey. He graduated from Rutgers University in New Brunswick, New Jersey with a Bachelor's degree in English Literature. Justin will be best remembered for his passion in finding work and purpose for those who suffered disabilities. Since 1982, Justin worked as a non-profit administrator for organizations assisting people with disabilities including eight years at the First Occupational Center of New Jersey, in Orange, New Jersey, eight years in New York City with AHRC, and, more recently, as the executive director for the ARC of High Point from 2002 – 2004. Whether playing golf, tennis or basketball, Justin enjoyed life to the fullest and cherished his family. He was a graduate of the Leadership High Point program through the High Point Chamber of Commerce. He loved to travel with wife, Andrea and son, Dylan, and most recently toured Alaska in 2007, and celebrated his 20th wedding anniversary in Paris, France in 2008. He had also traveled to Ireland, Prague, and many places across the United States. Justin saw the best in people and encouraged others to do the same. His quiet passionate demeanor attracted friendships that made lifelong relationships. Whether watching a good film, reading, traveling or eating butter pecan ice cream, Justin was a loving husband, devoted dad and best friend and brother. Justin was first diagnosed with a brain tumor in June 2005 but continued to make a difference as he volunteered with Reading Connections as a tutor for adult literacy, as well as several other community organizations. He and younger brother, Damon, participated in a 3K through Battery Park this past September to raise funds and awareness for the Brain Tumor Society. Throughout his illness, until the last month, he was able to stay active with hiking, sports, and traveling. He and son, Dylan went on a nine day mission trip with Covenant Church in 2007 to the medical clinic in Batey #7 in a rural section of the Dominican Republic, where they put a permanent roof on a community building and completed other construction projects in the area to assist the small village. This trip was a life altering experience and made a profound difference on the father and son. Justin was preceded in death by his dad, Jac D'Joseph. Surviving are his loving wife, Andrea West; son, Dylan D'Joseph, a high school senior at High Point Central who plans to attend UNC- Chapel Hill in the fall and trusted dog, Tobie, all of the home; brother, Damon D'Joseph of Summit, New Jersey; mother, Rita Donnelly of South Orange, New Jersey; and many friends he kept close throughout the years. In lieu of flowers, the family is asking that donations be made to the Good Samaritan Medical Clinic where he and Dylan visited. Please make checks payable to Covenant Church, 1526 Skeet Club Road in High Point, NC 27261 and note the donation D'Joseph/Good Samaritan Clinic on your check.
