Fond memories I have of many days and nights I spent in the Brown's home. There was always laughter and great food. I know how much you all will miss your mother. She was a truly kind and compassionate lady. Will always cherish my time with Janelle. Mrs. Brown was an awesome teacher who wasn't afraid to conduct science experiments with our class! May God fill you with a peace that passes all understanding. Love and prayers, Barbara
