Not sure what to say?

My father, Alfred M. Brown of Concord, N. C., served with Mr. Thrower on the board at GMA. He was a graduate as well. I have a framed pictorial listing of all of the board members in 1962. I just read the online obituary today.
Mr. Thrower was a man of integrity.

Sincerely
Alfred M. Brown, Jr.

Tricia and Laura-
I was surprised to see your dad's lovely obituary in today's Boston Globe. I have lived in Massachusetts for over 38 years and it brought back a flood of memories: Early years on Greystone Road, E. Rivers, Northside Methodist, and finally Hollins! Graduation was the last time I saw your parents and I remember they made a point of seeking me out to congratulate me. They always called me by my full name to distinguish me from you, Laura! My sincere condolences to all of...

May God grant you strength and courage as you face the coming days a head.

Randolph and Margaret Thrower were already well known for their impact on the Wesleyan College family of students, faculty and alumnae when I was a student there. (Class of 1958). I wish that I had known them personally. I mourn their loss together because their names just always flowed together in my memory. I was a scholarship student and I am sure that many Wesleyannes had the opportunity to attend Wesleyan because of their dedication to the "oldest and best.". My condolences to the...

Much has been said about Randoloph's integrity, all of which is true. I would like to add one personal experience: I was interviewing with Sutherland in 1965. At the time I was with another Atlanta firm. Randolph insisted that I give my notice to my existing firm before he would extend me an offer to join Sutherland, because he did not want it to be said that Sutherland was proselytizing at another firm.

I am thinking of you. What a great life and a great father. He also had a great daughter in you.
Love to all your family,
Alice McDonough

A true southern gentleman of the old school. My parents always enjoyed their company. ]Sorry for your loss but what a wonderful legacy he left.
