Amanda Parrish Brown

Mandy was such a wonderful person. I was lucky to call her a friend in high school and regret I haven't had a chance to meet all of you. She was such a funny, sweet girl then and touched lots of people. I know how you must miss her. Your family is in all of our thoughts and prayers.

Dear Derek, Miles and Kyle, Mr and Mrs. Parrish
Amanda and I worked together in New Orleans and Orlando. We had so many laughs over the years about dumb stuff at work. Amanda was a big inspiration for me - an angel. She was the happiest mother I have ever seen. I feel truly blessed to have known her.

I'm so very sorry to hear this sad news. Mandy was such a delight while in high school. She was a cheer leader when I sponsored the squad in 1984 at R.H. Watkins High School. She was always so happy. She kept me laughing at many a ballgame. She will be missed severely but she'll always be in my heart.
God, please comfort this precious family.

Mr. and Mrs. Parrish,
I loved Mandy very much and have wonderful memories of our years together as friends. You are in my thoughts and prayers during this time of sorrow.

Mr. and Mrs. Parrish, Greg and Tammy,
I am so sorry for your loss. Mandy was such a sweet person. I never met her husband or her children, but I am sure they are wonderful children of God. I will be praying for all of you. My mom, Gayle Knight sends her love and prayers to you all.

I am so sorry to hear about Mandy. I have not seen her since I graduated from Watkins in 1983, but I can still see that big bright smile of hers. I pray that you will find comfort in knowing that she is with the Lord.

Jim and Dot,
There are no words that express the sorrow of losing a child, I can only say that I love you and how very sad it is to us all to lose our Mandy. Mandy has been a ray of sunshine since the day she was born and her sweet, happy face is what I see when I think of her. I have wonderful memories of trips to Colorado with all of us stuffed in a station wagon and hearing that precious little girl singing songs in the back seat and inevitably throwing up. She was adorable then and...

I am so sorry to hear about Mandy and all that she has been through. Although, I did not get to know her husband and children, I know that they were blessed to have her in their lives. She was a wonderful and happy person and meant so much to so many. She was a great friend and will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Love, Dana Biglane Burwell

Dot,

My heart is with you in the loss of your precious Mandy. Sue talked about Mandy in Sunday School this morning and read the devotion from My Utmost for His Highest. I know that Mandy truly poured herself out for God and her family and touched so many lives in the process -- even those of a dozen or so women in Sunday School this morning, some of whom had never even met her. I love you and miss you. Melinda
