Annie Armittie Farris

Annie Armittie Farris, 89, passed away peacefully on Monday, December 2, 2024 at White Oak Manor in Kings Mountain surrounded by family.

Born in Cleveland County, she was the daughter of the late Walter and Essie Farris.
Affectionally known as "Mit", she will be remembered for finding joy and laughter in the simplest of things. Having been diagnosed with polio at an early age, Mit withstood tremendous challenges throughout her life, all the while maintaining her faith and unwavering spirit. She was a Christian woman who showed kindness to everyone she met. Mit had a gift of music and enjoyed playing piano for her church as long as her health allowed. She loved crafting, flowers, old movies, and anything chocolate. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by three brothers: Ted, Wray, and Calvin Farris and her sister, Gertrude Carroll. Survivors include her brother, Paul Farris (Linda) of Kings Mountain, NC and sister Gail Whitehurst (Rick) of Winston Salem, NC. Although she never had children of her own, she will be fondly remembered by numerous nieces and nephews that considered her a substitute grandmother. A graveside service will be held at 2:00 pm on Friday, December 6th at Mountain Rest Cemetery in Kings Mountain.

Funeral services are entrusted to Clay-Barnette Funeral Home of Kings Mountain
