Dennis and family,
This is a likely a ‘bitter-sweet’ experience for you. Death is never completely welcome, whether it comes when loved ones are young or in their nineties, as with Mrs. Brown. Yet, it is sweet to know that she is free of any discomfort and is with the Lord. Our daughters have always referred to her as ‘Mama Brown,’ too. Thanks for sharing her with others. She is fondly remembered. You have our love and prayers. Ronnie and Nancy Owen
