I did not know your mother, but I do know Malissa and and Tiny(never knew her birth name(Cynthia) until I read the paper, but nevertheless I want to send you and your family some comforting words to let you know that time will heal all wounds and it will take time. We go through some tough trials and tribulations and with the work of GOD and the FAITH you have in HIM, that will make everything alright. So go on and cry because I know you miss your mother.May GOD continue to keep you in his care.

To the Brown Family: My heart was sadden to hear about the passing of a child of God, Marian. I know she is with her Heavenly Father now. She was such a sweet person with that lovely smile for everyone. We used to meet almost every Sunday back in the 80' when her husband will sing. After that God had us see each other again working with the ushers union. She will surely be missed. With Love Nancy J. Broadie, Ladies Ushers' Union Of Richmond & Vicinity
