I was sadden to hear of your father's homegoing. Our families (Brown &Osborne) were bonded together by God's Agape Love. I can remember the times Mr. Charles and my dad would go fishing and how they would talk about who got the biggest catch! Our prayers are with each of you!!!!!! I know what it means and how it feel to have a love one pass on, but memories are precious so keep them in your heart and this will help you make it through this season and months to come. Love you, Carol(CaCa), Clara Brown and family
