Carter and Fredrick,
I have just learned of your father's passing in 2016 and, most recently, your mom's passing.
I am saddened by their passing as I knew (you as well) and remember them as Andrea was my best friend in High School.
My condolences, as belated as they may be) to you and your families. They were all wonderful a d I will remember them fondly with much love.
God Bless you and keep you.

To Carter and Frederick, your mother was one of my mother´s closest friends and one of the sweetest people I have ever met. She gave so much of herself to help anyone in need...living out her nursing profession in her everyday life.
I will always hold her close in my heart. She was a true blessing in my life, always reminding me that as my nurse, she gave me my first bath!
She will truly be missed!

To the Brown family, I offer my heartfelt condolences. Edna was a very unique person, everyone felt comfortable in her presence. This happened because she was so loving, so sincere, so concerned about people and what was going on in their lives. Being Edna Brown, she was ready to help. Thank GOD that he allowed all of us to know and love her.
I pray for the Holy Spirit to comfort you and give you peace.

To The Brown Family....
Remembering Edna as leader and coworker in the first school based health center in the state of Indiana. Our days at RAH Clinic, Roosevelt High School. were memorable not only for the innovative services Edna led but for the good times we had working together. Edna not only possessed nursing skills; she insisted on including the social graces in all our activities. Her ladylike persona was ever present.
As strong as she was in her professional and social endeavors, highway driving presented its challenges for her. I learned several alternative routes to and from Chicago as a passenger in Edna's car. The back roads also became a routine scenic tour on lunch dates from Gary to Merrillville. I-65 was not her choice for travel. Thank you, Edna, for the fun memories . I am blessed to have them!
I pray the family will receive consolation knowing Edna lived a full life of proud professionalism while bringing joy to those who knew her as a friend. May God grant you peace as you lay your dear loved one to rest.

I remember your Mom. She and my mother were friends and I believe travelled to Chicago working on continuing their education in their fields. My mother was a school teacher in Gary at Norton Elementary School. Your Mom was so cheerful and always happy. God blessed her with longevity. Peace and God´s care , Karen Coopwood Turner
