Mary Katheryn Mattox BREWER 

LAKELAND - Katheryn (Kay) Brewer died Monday, January 6, 2014, at Grace Manor, from recurrent cancer. She was born in Fulton, MS, but lived in Florida near Astor from a very early age. Her father was the manager of Juniper Club on Silver Glen. The scrub area made famous by Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings, "The Yearling," was her favorite place on earth. She moved to Lakeland from Titusville in 2003 and was a resident of Cypress Lakes.    
  She was preceded in death by her mother, Hester Booker Mattox; her father, Russell Mattox, her husband, Dickey Thomas Brewer, her sister, Mabel Mattox Haake, her niece, Hester Theresa Haake Gray, and a grand-niece, Marlo Rayne Gray.
    Kay Brewer was a retired Medical Laboratory Technologist. She was a 1943 graduate of Florida State College for Women and joined the Women's Army Corps during World War II. Kay Brewer, though she never admitted it, was an inspiration to young women by daring to do and try things that were out of the realm of women's roles during her lifetime.

She worked at one time in Chicago, IL, and knew well many of the Chicago Bears during that time, including George Blanda. Her life was full of exciting experiences.

The most meaningful of her experiences was taking over the care of her Grand-Niece, Marlo, following the death of Marlos mother. Cerebral Palsy kept Marlo from being an active child, but "Auntie Kay" and "Uncle Dick" gave her every opportunity for an experience-filled life. Having no children of her own, "Auntie Kay" loved her nieces and nephews as if they were her own. She leaves behind two nieces, Sandra Haake Harwell (Doug), and Rosemary Haake Woodruff (Charlie), one nephew, Henry Russell Haake (Jean), grand-nieces, Sharon Harwell Richard (David), Cathy Haake Cubbage (Dennis), Rebecca Haake Quintana (Anthony), grand-nephews, Douglass Harwell (Teresa), Russell Harwell (Cara), Bradley Hagan, Scott Haake (Amber), and 14 great-grand nieces and nephews.

Dr. John GLENNON

Dr. John Glennon, of Granville, NY, passed away at his home on Monday, August 22, 2011 following a long illness. John was born on December 20, 1932 in Kingston, New York, the son of the late John B. and Nell (Avery) Glennon. John was a graduate of Union College in Schenectady and Albany Medical College in 1958. John married Anita Morin on November 24, 1955. John, Anita and their budding family left for Staten Island Hospital in Hagerstown, MD, where he serviced his residency in public health. Upon completion of this, they moved to Granville, New York, where John opened a practice which spanned from 1961 until December of 1998 when he retired. He and Anita served as medical missionaries in the Dominican Republic. John's devotion to medicine and his young family, interpreted into vacation's spent with John volunteering for two week stints in places such as Okenagan, Washington, at the federal prison in Lewisburg, PA, at an Aids clinic in Provincetown, Massachusetts and at federal prison hospital, Harrisburg, PA, and during the Cuban crisis at Indiantown Gap, PA. John spent the two weeks covering for other doctor's so that they could have vacation time. John was much more to the Granville area then a kind and caring family practitioner. He and his wife, Anita (who in addition to being a wife and mother was also a nurse) served the public in many other ways. Their strong faith brought them to immeasurable heights when it came to public service. Some examples of this was serving as school physician, volunteering for many years at Washington County Head Start, serving with Carl Clapper to help with the Handicapped Children's Program and with Pat Harrison, RN, working on the Utilization Committee reviewing charts for public health nursing at their office in Hudson Falls. Always ready to help those in need, John frequently raided the kitchen and freezer of their large family to fill boxes of food for those in need, which he gave away. Along with their parish priest and good friend, Father Paul Roman, they started what is now known as the Ecumenical Food Pantry and is housed in the basement of St. Mary's Church. John wanted to take his faith a step farther, and was ordained a Deacon in 1982 by Bishop Howard Hubbard, where he served in the Roman Catholic Diocese of Albany. His assignment from the Diocese was to serve with Father James Hayes as a Chaplain at Great Meadow Correctional Facility in Comstock, NY. Not one to be idle, after John retired from his medical practice he received his Master's in Theology at Westminster Chapel at Oxford University in Cambridge, England in 2000. John and Anita started spending their winters in Leesburg, Florida, where John served the Orlando Diocese. He filled in as a Chaplain for the Leesburg Regional Medical Center. He also volunteered at the Free Baptist Clinic which provided medical assistance for those without health insurance. John was predeceased by his parents; by his eldest child, Mary Bergmeier in 1998 from Breast Cancer; and in 2005 by a grandson, Zachary Bergmeier, who had just returned from Fallujah and Samarrah in Iraq. John was the eldest of his siblings, they are: William and his wife, Terry and two sons, James (predeceased) and his wife, Geraldine, all of Kingston, NY; his sister, Margaret Jasinski and her husband, Frank and their six children, all Massachusetts. John and Anita were blessed with their children who survive John: John Glennon Jr. and his wife, Rhonda of North Carolina; Robert and his wife, Sarah of Brattleboro, VT; Ann Benjamin and her husband, David of Keene, NH; Elizabeth Dean and her husband, Jason of E. Swanzey, NH; and Joseph Glennon and Teryll Rainey of California. In a continuation of his large family, John is survived by his beloved grandchildren: Jacob Bergmeier and his wife, Diana of Connecticut; Kirsten Glennon and Stephanie of MA; Lisa Lamont and her husband, Eric of Maine; Veronica Glennon of Richmond, VA; Jonathan Glennon of NY; and Clark, Graham and Rhys Glennon, all of Brattleboro. The newest member of the family is great-granddaughter, Lillian Jane Bergmeier. A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated on Thursday, August 25, 2011 at 10:30 AM at St. Mary's Roman Catholic Church, 23 Bulkley Ave., Granville, NY, with the Rev. Thomas Zelker and Bishop Howard Hubbard presiding. Burial will follow at Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Cemetery in Middle Granville, NY. Friends may call on Wednesday, August 24, 2011 from 2-5 PM and 6-8 PM with a prayer vigil at 7:45 PM, by Fr. Joe at St. Mary's Roman Catholic Church, 23 Bulkley Ave., Granville, NY.

Their two children, Linda Radel (nee Patrick) and Maurice Conway Patrick, Jr., were born in 1949 and 1951 respectively. The family would go on to enjoy vacationing Revolutionary and Civil War sites when the children were young and attend UF football games later when Maurice and Margaret joined the UF Boosters Association. Once the children went to college, the Patricks undertook a significant amount of foreign travel and participating in yearly Bomb Group Reunions.
Maurice is survived by his two children, Linda Radel of Tallahassee (husband Bill) and Maurice of Windermere (wife Donna), as well as grandchildren Nyssa Radel, Ashley Eury (husband Seth), Amanda Patrick, and Gavin Patrick (wife Laura), two great granddaughters and two great grandsons.
He was a patriot, military enthusiast, avid Gator fan and family man. He will be sorely missed but his memory lives in our hearts.
A private family memorial service will take place in the future at the Florida National Cemetery in Bushnell, Florida. – Ledger- Sunday, April 9, 2013
