Hi I'm Lily Yocum, today is the 3 years my grandma had sadly passed away. Our whole neighborhood misses her so much and wishes she still here. She was the kindest, loving, and strong person out there and never judged anyone. I know she is proud of me and my family and is with us all. Even though we can't see her she is always with us and she will always be my angel!! We love you Nana and we miss you

Hello my name is lily, I'm one of Barbara Bracken grandchildren. When my nana passed it was the hardest thing I've ever experienced. It was like a piece of my heart left. We stuck together as family though and fought threw the pain to show nana that we are gonna be ok! She always had a smile on her face and was someone you could trust with your life. She did her best to fight but God called her name and she knew it was time! We miss you nana and we love you!

I'm sorry I didn't know she passed. We didn't hear in church. Prayers and thoughts to you all. I remember so well as a kid going to their apartment when they lived down the street from me. Playing with Suzanne as kids until they moved away. But if I saw them in church they always said hi. Barb always a beautiful nice person will truly miss her. From all of us in the valdez family our deepest simpth
