To Granddad from Mya
Granddad, I miss so very much. I will miss sitting on your lap, watching you play games on the computer and watching TV together, laughing when you tickle me. Mostly, I will miss your hugs and kisses. Our candy runs to Wal-mart for M&M's, Snicker bars and Reese's cups that we share together. I know you are watching over me. I'll pray that you and Grandma Dianna find each other.
Love you always,
Mya Drungo

To Granddad,
Ever since granddad died, I started to feel terrible because I miss the times when he would pick me up, carry me on his shoulders when he waited at my bus stop. I also miss the way he would tell me jokes and cheer me up when I was sad. Plus I miss the times when I got honor roll, he would take me to Denny's and give me money as a gift. He would also buy me anything I wanted at my favorite stores. He always told me he loved me and I will never forget those same words. He always told me, “I love you�.
Love,
Nichole

To my loving Grandfather, May his soul find peace, along with Grandma Dianna.
It has been a long journey, one filled with beginnings
And, my loved ones, this is just one ending
Of a novel, of a story among many others
Let them say I stood as tall as a redwood
Let them say I was more than a man
Let them say I shared in the joy of life
Let them say my laughter was infectious
I have loved and been loved greatly
Know that I love all of the good times
Let them rouse a sounding cheer
One to drown out the trumpets of heaven
Let them pray and hear the words spoken
Let them speak in tones of reverence about the man I was
Let them know that for years to come I will still be there
-Never to be forgotten-
Let them say what they will of me as long as I have your love
When I come to those gates, I will give my love and stories to those who have passed before me
I will tell them of my time and whisper the jokes I have learned
So I ask, not for you to cry, but rejoice in the time I was here
Recall the laughs and joys I have shared with you
Recall the times where we were happy
Let them know I'm fishing
Let me depart with your words of love as I have left you with words of wisdom
I will live on within your heart and memories

My heart is heavy right over the loss of a dear friend. Mr Q and his family embraced my daughter and I when his daugther Deanna was attending college in Charlotte, NC and over the years our families have shared many wonderful times together. He was a wonderful person and I feel that I was blessed to have crossed his path. My prayers go out to his family and friends for their strength, comfort and peace. He will be highly missed by many. However, we must rememeber the wonderful times we had with him and know that God is able to carry us all through these times.

To Dads, it is hard to say goodbye but it is comforting to know you are with our Heavenly Father. I am going to miss you but I am blessed with your memory. I remember how you accepted me into your home, heart, and family that Thanksgiving so many many many years ago. That is a memory I will cherish always. With all my heart and love, Rest In Peace.

I did not know Mr. Brown 'Bay' for long but the first time I met him I was embraced into his family. He was truly a fatherly figure and I often told David he reminded me of a cuddly teddy bear. He was so loving and genuine. I will never forget him. And I will always be reminded of his loving demeanor and the upright values he stood for through his reflection in David. I am praying for the entire family for strength, comfort, and peace. I am blessed to have known him and to have spent time with him before he went on to be with the Lord. God Bless.

To the Brown family, I would like to personally send my deepest sympathy. Bay, was such a help to my mom and me from the day we met him, right through the time I had to deal with my mom's passing. Bay's encouraging words and sound advice; delivered the way that only Bay could, kept me smiling and together. To me he was a Friend, Father, and Big Brother all rolled up into one, and I'm truly a better man for having known him.

My the Lord God give you strength during this time of lost. Bay was a blessing to our family in our time of need. He is now in paradise with his maker, where he will feel no more pain. To Brenda, the children and family, please accept our deepest sympathy, and we are praying for God to give you strength and courage during this time of pain. With much love. Brian and Renea Eubanks

Our loss of Uncle Bay is definitely heavens gain. Uncle Bay was that Uncle that every child loved to go visit and hang out with. Whether it was fishing, crabbing, cooking, or just relaxing around the house—he always kept us laughing with his jokes and sense of humor. These last couple days have allowed much reflection on the time spent with him and the family—I remember visiting in North Carolina and catching crabs and learning to not suck our fingers anymore because of the hot sauce he would put on them-lol. I remember going to the malls and beaches in Hawaii and eating his yummy teriyaki chicken; But mostly I remember the four years when Aunt Di and Uncle Bay opened their home to me while I attended college in Hampton. How can you sum into two words someone who is the most thoughtful, loving , caring, smart, funny, kind-hearted, and genuinely good person that you will ever meet—Uncle Bay. He unselfishly and endlessly went out of his way to help countless numbers of people—too many to name I am sure! I cannot imagine the pain of losing a father or spouse-- so my heart goes out to you all. I know how good Uncle Bay was to me—so I KNOW he was good to all of you too.
Uncle Bay—I think the sentiment goes “If I had a thousand tongues I could not say thank you enough”—and I know you already know how grateful I am that you took me in and raised me like I was your own while at HU—your guidance and support and all that you did daily was and will forever be extremely appreciated. I sent hugs and kisses to you daily so I hope you got them-I always thought there would be more time with you here --with us-- but I know you have other things to tend to on the other side. I think the doctors had it all wrong—-the way I will always remember your heart… will be one that was the biggest, most giving, and love filled heart I have ever seen. We Love you Uncle BayBay!
Oh, by the way, I hope you saved your recipes because Mike and I are still learning to make your pork chops and gravy!
--With Love Krissy & Mike

Dear Donna, David, Deanna, and Jr,
I share your pain during this difficult time. Look to the hills, for your strength, God is real and he will do just what he says he will do for you. He says he will never leave you nor forsaken you. I am so grateful to have met Bay and Diana during our Okinawa Japan days and we became a family. I am eternally grateful that Diana introduced me to her family and we joined together and became family also. I love each of you dearly, if you need me call me. My door is always open. I pray that God will strengthen this family to understand his will.
May God bless and keep each of you and my condolences are extended to the Warner family, Moma, Nell, Reggie, Beverly and Val.
Love you always.
Mary, Sharon, and Stephanie

And in every work that he began in the service of the house of God, in the law and in the commandment, to seek his God, he did it with all his heart. So he prospered. IIChronicles 31:21
Quentin Bay Brown did just that - he prospered and is now with his maker.
My heart goes out to all the children and the entire extended family as well. Our families first met being stationed overseas together. Bay was the other dad for me, who cheered for me during my basketball games as well as for his own son David. I am so glad that our families spent time together in Okinawa and created life long memories together. I am here for you, please know that you are in my prayers always. Love You All.

Donna, David, Deanna and Que, Jr.:
I know your hearts are heavy at this time. Your father carried on your mother's legacy and he loved you all very much. You all have each other now and your family to continue this unconditional love. Don't ever let anyone come between that. Family is a sacret gift from God and we all have to hold on to that. I love you all very much and will be here for you until the end of my journey.
Trust in the Lord with all of your heart. Seek him for your comfort in this time of sorrow, ask for strength to face this journey without your parents he will show you the way. God's peace will fill your hearts as he will all of us.
His Love will hold each of us gently in the hollow of his hand.
May God continue to Bless each of you and this family and stay beside us as we go along the way.
I will now burn a candle everyday in memory of Dianna and Bay.

Bay,
You will always be remembered as good a friend as anyone can have(speaking as a man, good male friends are hard to find). You've always, always been there for everyone in this family, through the good times and more importantly the bad times. When we speak of family we have "immediate" family and "extended" family but you are considered by all as "Immediate" family. I will miss you working that fish fryer at the family cookouts, helping anyone, anyway that you can without being asked and I'll also miss having you around just to talk to and share an occasional drink. You were a good, strong black man and have left an example that all of us should strive to follow. I know that you have gone on to a better place and your soul is resting in peace. I love you man.....

To the Family,
I am truly sorry to hear of your recent loss of your dad. I extend my sincere sympathy to all of you. Your dad lived a long and rewarding life and accomplished so much in his lifetime. He will be remembered as the hardworking, intelligent, FUNNY and loving man that he was. I will miss Bay because I had the chance to get to know him and enjoy being around him. Bay was such a great guy. He had a sense of humor and always seemed so happy and full of life. He will be missed by all of us who knew him.
Just remember" Blessed are they that mourn for they shall be comforted".
Our thoughts and prayers will be with all of you. May you find comfort in the outpouring of sympathy from all of us who share your loss.
In faith & Love,

I am so sorry to here of "Dad's" passing. I immediately began to think about how good he always treated me back in Hampton and how when I needed a place to stay, he came to my rescue. I know I was not Dad's biological daughter, but he sure treated me that way. I will forever miss you Dad, and I wish I would have seen more of you when I made my trips to Hampton. May the Angels of Heaven forever be in your presence and I know that God called you home to be with "Mom Diane" to continue your spiritual journey. I love you Dad. I pray strength, comfort, and peace during this time for the Brown family and please know that I love you all very much and ALWAYS will.
Love, Lottie

To my Uncle/Godfather I am truly going to miss the fun times and great talks that we had. "Okay so Who is going to Keep me and Mommy straight" (SMILING) I am going to miss you so much. From Kionna "Grandad" you mean the world to me. I'm going to miss coming to your house and riding in the back of blue truck.
Uncle Bay just being born on your birthday will always mean alot to me. With you being gone I will still celebrate our B-Day with a extra candle to represent you each year. We both love you so much.
Until We Meet Again your child Keisha aka Kersha & Kionna aka Big Girl hugs and kisses from us both

To my dear brother-n-law Bay may you rest in peace. You have taken your flight home and have completed your journey here with us. My heart is heavy as I write this entry and I am crying tears of joy. I will forever remember you and your smiling face. You have been here with us through thick and thin. You have been the ROCK in this family and have shared so many memories with us even after our dearest Dianna took her flight. There are just no words that can describe all that you have done for this ENTIRE family. You loved to cook for us at the drop of a hat. You would Fry Fish and take over even when you did not feel your best.
I love you so much and always will. You knew that I would have Keisha on your birthday 34 years ago. You stood by me then and you did right up until you took sick.
May God continue to Bless this family and we will get through this with his Grace and Mercy.
Until we meet again, your loving Sister, Valerie

Dear Bay: Though I have been away from you for years, I have never forgotten you (& the late Diane). Its so easy to think about the good in you because that is all I remember; the good. You and your family were there for me and my family as we needed you. I remember you sharing your good heart, helping us through some of the growing pains as we started our adult life. And for that, my thoughts and prayers are always with you and your family. May your spirit live on. Love you,
Sylvia Warner (& family)
