Ramona Ann Nanney was born June 16, 1954, in Wynnewood, OK, to Travis Raymond & Theresa (Neal) Gibson. She passed from this life on Sunday, November 8, 2026, in Oklahoma City, at the age of seventy-two, surrounded by her beloved family.
Ramona, better known by family and friends as Mona, grew up in Murray County, attending school at both Davis and Sulphur. Following high school she began working at the 77 Grill in Davis, prior to working a brief time for Halliburton. Being a devoted mother, Mona left Halliburton in 1976 and returned to the 77 Grill to allow her more time to be with her children.
Mona worked alongside her mother, Theresa and her sister, Shelly, six days a week. All three ladies worked every aspect related to the restaurant business. However, Mona spent most of her time in the back doing prep work, as well as making the famous 77 Grill biscuits, pies, and rolls. It is estimated from 1976 until her retirement in 2021 that Mona made at least 650,000 "cat head" biscuits, not to mention the countless pies and rolls. She was a very hard worker and was loved by so many local customers.
Family was Mona's most cherished possession in life. She loved each member of her family, especially her beloved grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Mona, known as "Grammy," never missed an opportunity to take her grands anywhere they wanted to go, and often took the grand's friends along as well.
Ramona will be remembered for her excellent cooking skills, her unwavering love for her family, and being a friend to all. "Rest easy now Mona."
Survivors include her daughter, Cheryl (Nanney) Garland & husband Billy; her son, Michael Nanney & wife Pam; nine grandchildren, Austin Gibson, Cecily Inman, Richelle Inman, Stormy Nanney, Quinton Nanney, Stephen McBride, Alisha Miley, Keeley Bowen, and Kace Garland; great-grandchildren, Hadleigh, Raelynn, Everly, Jaxton, Judson, Tucker, Taggart, Abigail, Turner, Parker, Noah and Rostan; sister, Shelly Hicks; two brothers, Anthony Parenti & wife Donna, and Randy Gibson & wife Rosiland; as well as several aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews and cousins.
