Dear Sandi and Brown Family,
When I met your Dad at Christian's birthday, here in Scranton, I just knew how much he loved his family. Even though I did not get to know him very well he was awesome!! The reason I know this is because each time I would pass your desk and look at the picture of you and your Dad at your wedding, it just glowed on both of your faces, the love you have for each other. I love you and miss you all. May your grief be gentle and God Bless,
Becky

Mr. Brown (I could never call him Bob, although he asked me to many, many times) will be missed by many since he was loved by many. He was always there with a quick smile and always made people feel at home in any situation. He always welcomed me and always, always made me laugh! My love and prayers go out to his family. Just know that your husband, father, grandfather, uncle, cousin, brother, etc. was loved by many and lives on in their memories. Save room for us, Mr. Brown!
