To the Brown Family
As i set at the funeral services for your mom, it brought back some wonderful memories. She called all of us babies and never made us feel unwanted, even though we played at your house all day long after school some days, the neighbors probably thought we were cousins because we were there so much. She just made sure we made our way home before dark. Just like one person stated, we all felt like we should be sitting with the family, because thats just how she made all of us feel, like family. I could not see your mom for years, but when i did see her, she greeted me just like she had just seen me the day before. We will never know how you feel, but be blessed to know that your mom was such a wonderful person and she never knew a stranger and that has carried on through her children. Thanks for allowing us to share in her memory. I love you guys and know that i am here if you need anything at all!
