The assistance you gave to those around you will be duly missed. Those you have touched with your grace weep for your loss to this world and by your example may assist others. God must have need of your talents among the angels to assist in the needs forthcoming. in your absence we pray for those that must endure the emotional distress, may they find peace in their hearts and thoughts of you and bond to each other. Absent but not forgotten

Delana, I will NEVER forget you! You were so full of love and life. You made the world a bit brighter for every person who knew you! I will miss your laugh and smile. I will NEVER forget the time we all went to get wraps and massages in Evansville, I had JUST gotten my lisence. Mom let me drive in a big city for the first time and I was SUPER scared. It took me a minute to pull out of a gas station and the man behind us was honking his horn, cussing and flipping us off! Boy was he in for a suprise when you rolled down your window! Thanks for sticking up for me that day and MANY other days! I will NEVER forget you Delana you will ALWAYS be my second momma and my Queen D! :) This isnt goodbye but a see you later! Keep all those angels in Heaven entertained (I know you will) May youre beautiful soul rest in peace. I will ALWAYS keep our memories! I love you Momma, Queen Delana!
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

Delana you are and will always be a Genuwine Queen, Brasher Baby, and now a Devine Angel. Yes we will all see you again "One Sweet Day"!! D.E.L.A.N.A.=Didnt Ever Love Anyone Near Asmuch!!! And never will. I always knew that when "Tabbie" was in town, your world stood still, and mine was a much more tolerable place to be in. I love you Delana! Your Family Was My Family...no changes planned either.

Where do I begin , how sweet, loving and caring a person Delana was. I got to know her at MCRC. She had a smile that lit up the room when she entered and that smile was contagious. She had fun, laughed and enjoyed life. Some of that fun was gave to my mother Effie that is in nursing home MCRC and when I told her about Delana her heart was broken. Delana is in heaven now giving as she did to all her friends on earth. We will always love our Delana and miss so dearly. <3

Delana had an art about her. She was able to befriend anyone within one meeting. Your beautiful smile, warm heart and ability to make everyone smile will never be forgotten. God has gained a special angel. To Delana's family, you are in my thoughts and prayers. May god grant you the strength needed to get through this difficult time.

Delana was a warm, loving woman. She always cared deeply for her family, friends and patients. I loved working with her from day one. Her cheerful personality and warm caring way were a wonderful boost to many patients lives. I will miss her laughter and her ability to make me smile. I will miss her crazyness, we always had so much fun when we went out. I will miss her....

Connie Smith left a message on August 31, 2011:
Where do I begin? I met Delana in 2005 when she became my therapy student. She shortly charmed her way into a full time postion with me at Morgantown. We worked together for about 4 years. We became best friends only a month after. She always made me laugh and we told each other EVERYTHING!! Delana held NOTHING BACK, and I do mean NOTHING! HAHA! She was such a kind and caring person. She would NEVER let people go without. She loved to laugh, dance, and loved being a therapist. She and I also worked PRN together a lot. Where I went she went and where she went I went. We always shopped together on black Friday, along with our other best friend Sandra Ritchie. My heart is breaking right now to lose such a wonderful friend. Delana you always had great things to say. You always tried to see the good in everyone. I can not imagine my life without her. I didn't know I could cry so many tears. I know I should be happy because you are in a better place, but I just depended on my best friend for everything. I just need you here, but as they say, God needed you more. You were such the medical dictonary. If there was something to know about medicine, you knew about it. I never met anyone who could shop for 6 hours in the dollar store, but darn it, you could!! HAHA. I could write for days on memories. There are just way to many to write. I will keep them forever in my heart. I LOVE YOU DELANA RANEE BRASHER..............you will forever be my Queen. Until we meet again. I am going to miss you.

Delana had the most amazing smile. She could tell a story and get so into telling it that it didnt matter what she was saying just hearing her saying it was hilarious! Always focused on her patients and had their best needs at heart. I was blessed to have known her and miss her beyond words.

Queen Delana, I just wanted to say that I love you so much, and the clothes that you gave me and my mom will mean more to us than you can ever imagine.

Wendy left a message on August 31, 2011:
How lucky we are to have been blessed with you in our family Delana!! Words can't express what you mean to me. All I have done is sit and think about you and Freddie and how you went to Heaven together, probably racing eachother trying to get to see God's face before the other one: laughing and cutting up with eachother the whole way up there. Heaven is truly blessed to have you singing in the choir, with your Dad right beside you. I will miss you terribly Delana!! I may not ever get to see you physically, but I have wonderful memories of you and they are forever in my heart. You have touched the lives of many, MANY people and will definitely never be forgotten. I love you always!! PS. Don't worry, I'm sure You're the FAVORITE!!
