Obituary For Alicia Lanier Bratcher

Alicia Lanier Bratcher, 55 of Richlands, NC, passed away the evening of December 10th surrounded by her family after a courageous battle as a result of injuries sustained in an accident in February. Alicia graduated from Richlands High School and Lenoir Community College. She has been a member of Community Christian Church since she was a teenager. Alicia’s pride was in her children and she devoted herself to them and most enjoyed supporting their interests and activities. Most weekends you could find her at a ball field cheering them on. Alicia had an independent and fiery spirit. She was up for fun anytime and enjoyed going to the mountains, especially in the Fall, and the beach year around (known for having a great tan). She loved music, dancing, sports, joking around with friends, and making Christmas “magical” for her children. She could make her disapproval known with an eye roll, but was most known for her infectious shy smile and words of encouragement to her friends. She is survived by her three children, who made up her entire world, Jordan, Madison and John Tyler. Besides her children, Alicia is survived by her parents, Leslie and Charlotte Lanier; sister, Kimberly Wood (Charlie) and their children, Sarah (Sean) and Joshua; brother, Jason Galloway (Amanda) and their children, Emma, Merritt and Brock; several aunts, uncles, cousins, and many friends. The family would like to extend a personal thank you to Alicia’s caring nurses from Bayada: Carmen, Jen, Amanda and Tammy. Although, Alicia is no longer with us here, she will never be forgotten and will remain in our hearts forever. A Visitation will be held on Thursday, December 15, 2022 from 6:00-8:00pm at Community Christian Church, 222 Richlands Loop Road, Richlands, NC 28574. A Funeral Service and Committal Graveside Service will be on Friday, December 16, 2022 starting at 1:00pm also at Community Christian Church.

    So sorry for your loss. I didn't know her very well. I was a year older, but we rode the same school bus. Alecia was quiet and shy, but seemed nice. I'm sure she will be greatly missed by all her friends and family. Prayers for comfort for you all.

    Alicia was a terrific lady. I worked with her for several years at RES and loved getting to know her. Alicia was always soft spoken, polite and friendly to everyone. Anytime we met up, she always had a smile on her face. I will always remember her as a bright and cheery friend. I send my love and prayers to the entire family!
