To my Grandma, I love you for always loving me. Raising me since I was 5 months , you know just about everything about me . I appreciate the love you've given me for 33 yrs and always being here for me. Growing up at one point I didn't know anything about my mom til I was around 4 or so, you was the only mom I've ever known for 33 yrs and I'm forever blessed. It's a honor to be raised by such a caring , sweet, honest and most of all loving person like you. I will miss everything about you , your smile, jokes, you fussing with Grandpa , your meals, that glass of wines, Brushing your hair, singing gospel songs with. Your favorite song was " This Little Light of Mines " . I enjoyed helping taking care of you until your last days, you use to always tell us "Thank You" , I would always say " Grandma we doing what we suppose to do " because you would've did the same for us . I could go on and on about you , but those memories I will carry in my heart for the rest of my life - I love you Grandma and will always be your baby girl

Deepest condolences to all of Ms. Julia's loved ones. Keeping you all in our prayers. Beth Hammer and Friends at The Virginia Association of the DeafBlind.

Mrs. Brown,what an honor and a privilege to have had you and "Poppa" look after Samuel and Cheyenne from the time they were 6 weeks old and 10 1/2 months apart. When we asked if you would keep both of them being so close in age and so young, you didn't blink any eye, "just bring em on" is what you said.You even agreed to let Aaron stay sometimes. The kitchen always smelled so good in the morning with scratch made breakfasts(and of course all of the parents would come out the door with something wrapped in a bowl or a piece of bread...lol) even on your days off if the parents had a conflict you would still keep somebodys child if they needed you to. Our family is forever indebted and grateful to have had you in our lives when we needed you. You used to always tell the kids..don't say goodbye, say see you later. We will miss you..but we will see you later. Thank you Thomasine Vandervall Hayden,Edwin Hayden, Samuel, Cheyenne and Aaron

Prayers for your family. May your happy memories dwell and keep her near your heart always. Hugh and Janice Williams

My condolences and prayers go out to the family

Mrs Julia Brown was a Godly woman who loved everyone she came in contact with. Would do anything for anybody. A loving wife, mother, grandma, great grandma and great great grandma. She will be truly missed. Mrs Brown loved children, that was her passion. For many years Mrs Brown kept hundreds of children, including my son Emanuelle. In life you have that special person that God put there for you. She was that person for me. I will be forever greatful. Everytime I saw her I would tell her how much I love her. She was like a mother to me. I will keep my fond memories I have of her in my heart. Remember those we love don't go away, They walk beside us everyday. love you all. Joann Kidd and family

I love you grandma and I will never forget the love you have given me unconditionally, and I will continue to also be the woman you raised me to be and will continue to make you proud.

Grandma you will always be in my heart I will keep your memory alive thru me. I promise you that I will be the woman you groomed me to be

Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
