So sorry for your loss. Loved seeing all the pictures. She was never without a smile.

To the entire Brown family: I am so sorry to hear about the sudden loss of "Bugga" as you affectionately called her... she will be GREATLY missed. But her legacy carries on: I have always admired the strength and closeness of the Brown family. Bugga built that foundation and she will still be there in spirit. I know after experiencing first-hand a few of the "Brown family gatherings" that the bond that you all share is something sacred and special and sure to get you all through this. I look to your family's foundation as I build my own family. You are all truly blessed to have had such an amazing woman in the center of that family foundation, and I am so sorry for your loss...

Phyllis and Annas' family... my Condolences and prayers go out to you on the loss of a WONDERFUL and LOVING Woman. I was blessed to have had the chance to know such a sweet soul. Anna, I will miss you!

Lori and Family, You are all in our thoughts and prayers! Ron and Lori

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
