Fred – God bless you and your family. I remember your mom. So sweet. I did not remember that she was a Brendle. I go to church with Jim and used to sing in choir with Shirley. Prayers. Prays. Much love. Pat Moore
The sweetest woman I ever came across. You made work a little better. I’m go miss them tights hugs or just telling me you love me. Was my grannie. She hated going to bed she would be the last one we put down. She loved to eat and she loves babies. Her smile was everything. Mrs. Brown you will be missed.
