Barbara B. Brewer Hannum

She was preceded in death by her husband, Richard T Hannum; her son, Gary B Brewer; her two sisters, Mary Brewer and Ruth Greenlee; her two brothers, Thomas Akers and Ralph Akers.

She was loved by many and she is survived by one daughter, Loretta Vogel, Greenacres, FL; a nephew Clyde Brewer, Parkersburg, West Virginia; two nieces, Brenda Ianacci, Miami, Florida and Sandy Cook, Tamarac, Miami; five grandchildren, Amber Brewer, Naples, Italy, Sean Donovan, Portland, Oregon, Shannon Braddee, Oxford, North Carolina, Matthew Donovan, Gainesville, Florida and Jason Brewer, Chico, California; eleven great-grandchildren; and two great-great-grandchildren.

Babs, as she was known to friends, was known celebrate life and love. She was the Easter bunny in Spring, the Sun in the Summer, Thanksgiving in the Fall, and Santa in the Winter. Every season, she found ways to make fabulous meals as just one way to bring family and friends together to make memories...memories that so many of us have today. Barbara is the central reason why we have these memories. From organizing the cookbook at Christ Lutheran Church in Miami, Florida to making sure that every grandchild had a treasure in Vanderbilt Beach on our summer vacation, Barbara was the center of this. She brought life and love to every gathering or party that anyone was involved.

At a time like this, we must remember the joy, the love, and the life that Barbara brought to everyone she knew. As a natural and the best host anyone could ask for, at work at Cloverleaf Printing or organizing the family Christmas event, there was always the guarantee that Barbara would be involved and making sure that you were loved.

She was totally awesome.
