Ed, I am so sorry to read of the loss of your precious mom. She had the greatest sense of humor, a beautiful smile, great faith, and true love of family. You are all in my heart and prayers during this very difficult time. May memories bring you peace.

To the Brown Family - My thoughts and prayers are with you all at this time. I worked with Audrey and Audrey Jean years ago at Dever. I'm sorry to hear about your loss - Audrey was always upbeat and had sage advice and a quick smile for everyone. As a young nurse when I met her she taught me a lot about what caring and compassion meant in our chosen field. May she meet with Audrey Jean again and Rest In Peace.
