Our sympathy to you and your families on the loss of your mother. We are the family of Bea Brown, your mother's first roommate at the Village of Westerville. We were so impressed at your attention and caring toward your mother. We also enjoyed so much hearing her talk in her native Italian. I know you will miss her and yet realize that after 103 years she has earned a time of great rest and peace.
God Bless you all,
Keith and Barbara Brown, and Bea Brown

Our prayers and sympathy go out to your families. What a wonderful life she must have had with such a doting family like yours. How truly blessed all of you are to have had such a loving mother, grandmother and great grandmother. We didn't know her, but we do know her son Ralph and grandson Sam. We are still patients and many times have spoken about Sam's grandmother. Again, our sympathy and prayers to your families.
Sincerely,
John and Sharon McCarter
