To the family of Annie Brown-

Annie was a loving and warm individual who always wore a smile on her face. She loved baking those delicious sweet potato pies and then share them with everyone at school. I know that she is with God. My prayers go out to her family.

Robert,

Your mother made a significant impact on my life as a teacher, and I’m sure for many others. I learned so much from her and appreciated all the blessings she so freely shared with me. I will always remember, right before my mother passed, she and your mother would talk at Wal-Mart almost every Saturday. Well . . . I’m sure they’re together now talking, laughing, free of pain and suffering, and allowing Jesus to love on them. “We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.” 2 Corinthians 5:8

May God Bless and keep you and your family!

George and Robert,

Words cannot express how I felt when I heard the news. Mrs. Brown will truly be missed. She was one of the reasons I always "ate my vegetables." NiKyah's "Mrs. Brownie" Always kind and made sure that she stayed on us to ensure that we did what was right. Mrs. Brown was an inspiration to many. Gone but not forgotten.

To Robert and George,

I was greatly saddened when I received a phone call stating that your mother Deaconess Annie C. Brown had made her transition to the other side. Ms. Brown was a lady I looked up to we served on the Deaconess Ministry together . Ms. Brown will be greatly missed by all who knew her especially the both us. But we know that Ms. Brown is up the with the Father; she was a fighter and never was a person who would give up on anything. I remember in Prayer Service her favorite songs was "No not One and Count your Blessings. I do believe Ms. Brown she knew who she was serving and that each day was blessing to her. I thank God for allowing Ms. Brown to be in my life. Encouragement to the both of you Godly young men I say "To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord". He said he would be a mother to the motherless just stay strong in the Lord and remember what values your mother had for the both of you.

Love You in Jesus Name
