hideLeave a Condolence
First and foremost, please accept my condolences on the passing of Mrs. Brown. At first, I didn't recognize the name but after reading the details of her life I suddenly realized she was our bus driver for year. We attended Sacred Heart and Central Catholic and Mrs. Brown drove bus number 26. She was always a pleasant person and how she tolerated a bus full of crazy kids is beyond me. Again, sorry for your loss.
An angel that she was always a kind and caring soul....Prayers and hugs to the family ????
Was a great lady had many fun time growing up mom and her had great times driving buss together prayers for all the family
My thoughts and prayers are with the family. Myrtle made a huge impact on me while I had the privilege to ride her bus. I have so many great memories of those days.
