Anicia, so sorry to hear of your Mother's passing. She was a sweet soul and I enjoyed talking to her as my neighbor for years. I will be praying for you and your family.

I have truly lost a dear friend that I enjoyed knowing
over the years as a neighbor and co-worker. We
carpooled together while working at Mason-Dixon Trucking Lines for almost 20 years in Kingsport, Tn. We continued to stay in touch all these years, reminiscing over all the times we shared . I will miss her tremendously because she was
a person who always had good things to say about
everything.

Our lives are just a patchwork of experiences that get transformed to great memories. And, I have great memories of the times Marlene Bragg (my step mother-in-law) was in our home. We had great times at our annual 4th of July Texas Barbecues and other visits. There were occasions where Marlene and my mom would share a room in our home after my father-in-law passed. My mom and Marlene were like two teenage girls going shopping, sitting around reading, conversing about their spiritual experiences and playing games. Oh the memories...Marlene, our lives are better because you were in it. We will see you soon, Michael

Marlene will always be an eternal, beautiful soul. She was kind, Loving, giving, intelligent, and selfless. Marlene has helped so many people in her life and did not ever desire acknowledgement for it. She raised a beautiful daughter, Anicia Bragg! Marlene and Anicia were best friends as Mother and daughter. It is so wonderful that Marlene and Anicia were able to spend so many years together, living life to the fullest every day. Marlene and Anicia are in our hearts and prayers. We Love You!
