Ms. Brown I’ve always respected you, but after the time I spent with you over the last month I admire you so much more. I learned so much from you and wish we had more time. David and I love you and Mark and his family. Rest Easy!!! Till we meet again.
Marrley S. Brown was a special soul. I started out being her lawyer and later we became friends. She loved praying her rosary and donating her hand made quilts for new borns at the Front Royal Pregnancy Center. I also independently became friends with Brother Mark Wines her son. Such a special family!
Many years ago I had the privilege of meeting Marrley and her boys. I am thankful for that opportunity. She was kind, thoughtful and just a good woman. Rest in peace my friend.
It’s been one long year since you left us. I miss you terribly, there isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t think about you. I am trying to live up to the promises I made you!!!
