Condolences

It is with sadness that I loose another cousin in Mervin’s passing. As daughter of Clarence Brown who lived only a mile away from Abner,Alvena, Mervin and Alvin, your family was a big part of our lives. As George and I are unable to attend today’s service of remembrance, I send regrets and extend condolences to Kevin and Marilyn and their family on loss of Father, stepfather and grandpa. I do hope that we meet again at a reunion to help keep memories alive. I was able to speak with Alvin last evening by phone. Best wishes to all. Sincerely, Ruth Allen
