Words cannot adequately express the joy Cary, Tiffany, Barbee, and I felt when every day we receive email, cards, food, and Facebook messages of sympathy for the loss of my mom. Mom lived a full, feisty, and fiercely independent life up to the very end. This has been a difficult loss made easier by the outpouring of love and compassion by my friends at the college. Our heartfelt appreciation for all the expressions of sympathy. The family of Barbara C. Brown
