Kent and Suzy,
We did not learn about Wayne until this morning and we are so saddened by his death. Rest assured, you are in our prayers daily. Fran and I were not able to come over there because she is 24-7 care by me, so you see I don't get out much. All love from all of our family to you.
In Christ always
Uncle Glenn

My mother, Sara Steagall Lowe, worked with Mr. Clifford Brothers a good bit during the founding and early years of the Occupational Therapy Assistant (OTA) School, which started at Bradley School circa 1968. She thought so very highly of Mr. Brothers, and had a number of stories of his work and problem-solving ways. He went on to do many other tasks in the educational field, with the same wonderful spirit. We have been fortunate to have such wonderful people in our community.

I was a speech pathologist under Mr. Brothers. I travelled to various schools in the county. When I would go to Holloway, he was so kind to me and helped me in many ways. It was always a great pleasure to just sit and talk with him. God bless all the family. Janice Arnold

I worked for Clifford at the Central Office. He was first my boss and also my friend. We fished together at Dale Hollow Lake. I thought a lot of Clifford as a boss and a friend. We had a lot of good times together.

Suzanne, Kent, Wayne,
We are so sorry to hear of the death of your Dad.
I first met your Dad when he preached at Rock Hill Church of Christ; he later helped me get my first teaching job at Eagleville School when he was Superintendent of Schools. I met my husband at Eagleville School and later he performed our marriage ceremony at Rock Hill! We have many fond memories of him. We are so sorry for your loss.

Wayne, Kent, Suzanne , Charlotte and Harold, I am sorry to hear about Cliff's passing. I have known the Brothers family a long time. We attended Church with him and Sally at Kingwood for many years until he went to live with Kent. I was thinking of Cliff the other day and wondering how he was doing. He was a good Christian and pleasant person to be around. I enjoyed his teaching Sunday school classes. May God bless all of you and peace come unto all in the days to follow.
