To the family: Frances Solomon Brown was always a kind, gentle, beautiful woman. I remember all of the good times we had together. I was a few years younger than my older cousin and always thought she was a beauty. I treasure the memories of the good old days. I know you're in a better place now and you're with all the Solomons who went before. God speed.
