After celebrating her 93 rd birthday on November 25th, 2022, Faye "Elaine" Branham passed away on December 1st, 2022. Her dear Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, received her home. She had been looking forward to this moment for quite some time, frequently reminding and comforting those around her that she was ready. She will spend her favorite day of each year, Christmas, with Jesus.

Elaine was the middle child of William D. and Ruby Faye Wyatt, born in 1929 in Fort Worth, Texas. She loved God, her family, friends, Christmas, Texas, crossword puzzles, sports, and the Bible. She was passionate about the eternal destiny and spiritual well-being of her relatives, friends, and neighbors. She faithfully prayed for them as well as missionaries around the world.

Elaine attended Oklahoma Baptist University and Baylor University, majoring in accounting. She worked as an accountant for many years. She also attended New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary, where she met her husband, Ralph.

She was a committed mother to her two sons, raising them with nightly devotions and weekly "Friday fun." She emphasized to them the importance of having a relationship with God.

Elaine was preceded in death by her parents, her brother, Dub Wyatt, and her husband, Raymond Ralph Branham. She is survived by her sister, Lolly Maxwell, her two sons, Peter Branham and William Branham, as well as her six grandchildren, Lauren McFerren, Lindsey Jackson, Will Branham, Sarah Branham, Nate Branham, and Mica Branham.

Her memorial service will take place on December 28th, 2022, at 10:00 at Lakeside Funeral Home.

Her favorite song of all was Amazing Grace:

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound

That saved a wretch like me

I once was lost, but now I'm found

Was blind, but now I see

When we've been here ten thousand years

Bright, shining as the sun

We've no less days to sing God's praise

Than when we first begun
