    Walter, Annie Bell, Marva, State of Florida Representative Kamia Brown, Dee Dee, Yogi, Pierre, JuDaniel and the Brown Family, please accept our deepest sympathy and condolences, on the loss of your beloved father, Fill Brown. Our families have known and fellowshiped with each other for over 60 years, starting with Murchison Terrace Housing. We’ve laughed together, dined together and enjoyed Uncl Fill’s barbecue and Aunt Etta’s cooking. We were to afraid to challenge Uncle Fill in checkers, because, we didn’t want to lose. He had such a loud and God like voice. But,he was kind and gentle. Our parents were families that protected us and provided for us. We pray that God will bless you and comfort you and your family and bless you with the oil of joy for mourning. We share greatly in your loss. The Ings Family. Samuel B. Ings, Commissioner, District 6, City of Orlando, Retired.
