To Bill, Joy and the family of Wilma Brown,
Please accept our heartfelt love and condolences.
Wilma was a kind,loving and genuine person, but most of all she was a Godly woman. She was the prime example of what a Chistian should be and we were all blessed to have known her.
Please take comfort in knowing that she is now in the arms of Jesus and there are many prayers on your behalf for peace and comfort during this difficult time.
May God bless you all
