Thinking about you today and always grandma. Remembering you watching me and Elliott until we bent the corner walking to and from school. Remembering answering the phone and yelling to you that it was Mae Rosie, or pat, or gladis, or soooo many other people lol. Remembering you dragging me and Elliott to church and stopping to get a corned beef sandwich after lol. I miss you always, appreciate you forever and love you until it’s over. 

Hey Grandma, 

Not a single day has gone by that I haven't thought about you. I miss you so very much. You meant more than the world to me. You were me and Elliott's mother and father, you always went above and beyond for us, loved us unconditionally, raised us and did everything you could for us until the end. I miss you like crazy and I wish I could see and talk to you so bad. I would've never been who I am today, if not for you. I love you for eternity.

I light this candle for you ms.brown because your beautiful light will ALWAYS shine.HAPPY BIRTHDAY,RIP.

The Family of McKinley sends it deepest gratitude for your match making skills that resulted in adding over 60+ family members to the tree. Thanks for your shared memories your words were like a painting with  each beautiful stroke it was like going back in time with you. Thanks

I have known Mrs. Brown my whole life, never do I remember her without that beautiful smile on her face. She was always one of the sweetest ladies I've known. I will never forget year after year  how I would come home to a plastic bag on my door with green tomatoes in the summertime. I loved her for always thinking of me. Your presence in our neighborhood will truly be missed. Know that you were loved.

Your mother was a bright and shining light in so many lives. I will miss the times we used to talk at length, and the wisdom of her words. She was a good listener and always had good advice. I loved her dearly, thought of her as a mother. I thank God for allowing me to have such a beautiful person as a part of my life, and being a part of such a beautiful family. Know that we love you and are always here for you.

I am so sorry for our loss. I will keep your family in my prayers. May God give you comfort that only he can give.

Hope K.

I thought of you with love today but that is nothing new. I thought about you yesterday and days before that too. I think of you in silence, We often speak your name.
