    It is with profound sadness that we announce the unexpected passing of Braxton Leslie Wayne Littlejohn, age 16, of Union City, Michigan. Braxton left this world far too soon on Thursday, July 24, 2025, at his home, leaving behind a circle of family, friends, classmates, and teachers who are heartbroken by his loss.

    Braxton was born on March 26, 2009, at Oaklawn Hospital in Marshall, Michigan, to his loving mother, Ashley J. Littlejohn. From an early age, Braxton displayed a bright, creative spirit, a gentle heart, and a curiosity for the world around him. He grew up in Union City and was a student in the Quincy Community Schools system, preparing to begin his junior year of high school this fall. His potential was limitless, and the dreams he carried were just beginning to take shape.

    A multi-talented young man, Braxton found joy in a wide range of activities. He was a passionate gamer who loved to explore new worlds and challenges through video games. Music played an integral role in his life—he had a true gift. Braxton was an active member of the Quincy High School Marching Band and was known for his exceptional ability to play seven different instruments. Whether strumming his guitar at home or contributing to the rhythm of the band, Braxton brought emotion and energy to every note.

    In addition to his artistic side, Braxton also found fulfillment in athletic discipline through the Quincy Clay Target Team. Shooting sports offered him a space to focus, bond with peers, and continue growing in confidence. His diverse interests and wide-reaching talents were matched only by the depth of his character.

    Those who knew Braxton remember him as someone with a quick wit and a heartwarming sense of humor. He could make people laugh at the perfect moment and lift others up with his presence alone. He was known for giving the best hugs—warm, genuine, and comforting. His kindness, empathy, and ability to brighten a room were gifts he gave freely, and they will never be forgotten.

    Braxton’s passing is an immeasurable loss, not just to those closest to him, but to the entire community that watched him grow into a remarkable young man. His memory will live on in the music he made, the friendships he forged, and the love he shared.

    A public visitation to honor and celebrate Braxton’s life will be held on Tuesday, July 29, 2025, from 2:00 P.M. to 8:00 P.M. at Lighthouse Funeral & Cremation, 1276 Tate Trail, Union City, MI 49094. Following the visitation, Braxton will be cremated, and private ceremonies will be held at a later date.

    During this time of unimaginable grief, we hold close the memories of Braxton’s laughter, his passion, and his boundless spirit. He may be gone from our sight, but he will remain forever in our hearts.

    Please continue to keep Braxton’s family—especially his mother Ashley—and all who loved him in your thoughts and prayers.

    Rest in peace, Braxton. You will always be remembered, and you will always be missed.

    Obituary for Brenda Louise Murray-Hockley

    January 1, 1960 – July 23, 2025

    With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Brenda Louise Murray-Hockley on July 23, 2025, at the age of 65. Born on New Year’s Day in 1960—the first baby of the year in Fergus, Ontario—Brenda arrived with a quiet spark that grew into a lifelong source of warmth, laughter, and comfort to all who knew her.

    She was the beloved daughter of the late James “Lou” Murray and Isabel Bristow (née Aitken), and the loving sister of the late Becky Murray. Brenda is deeply missed by her siblings Zan (Dianna), Lee (Jodi), and Vic (Pat), fondly remembered by her extended Bristow family, and the father of her children, Bryan Hockley.

    Brenda was a devoted and fiercely loving mother to her children: the late Sidney, Sarah (Saul), Eulalia (Alex), Martha (Marcus), and Marilla. Her strength, creativity, and unwavering compassion live on through them. She was the proud and adoring grandmother of Ethan, Sahara, Nathanial, Pheonix, and Emerson—each one a shining light in her life. Her many nieces and nephews brought her endless joy and will carry forward her legacy.

    Brenda lived her life with quiet resilience, unmatched kindness, and an authenticity that made everyone feel truly seen and valued. Whether offering a listening ear over a cup of tea or sharing stories from one of her many bike adventures, Brenda had a rare gift for connection.

    She will be missed beyond measure and remembered always—with love, laughter, and profound gratitude.

    Brenda’s family will receive visitors on Tuesday July 29, 2025 from 2:00p.m. to 4:00p.m. and 7:00p.m. to 9:00p.m. and on Wednesday July 30, 2025 from 11a.m. to noon, at the Chatterson Funeral Home, 404 Hurontario Street, Collingwood.  A celebration of Brenda’s Life will be held at the Leisure Time Club, 100 Minnesota Street, Collingwood on Wednesday July 30, 2025 at 1:30p.m.

  • Randy Wayne Haynie, 66, died Tuesday, July 22, 2025, at his home in Northport. A celebration of life will be held at 1 p.m. on Monday, July 28, at The Church at Tuscaloosa, with a visitation to follow. Pastor Drew Oakley will officiate.

    Randy Wayne Haynie, 66, died Tuesday, July 22, 2025, at his home in Northport. A celebration of life will be held at 1 p.m. on Monday, July 28, at The Church at Tuscaloosa, with a visitation to follow. Pastor Drew Oakley will officiate.

    Haynie was born Oct. 17, 1958, in Oxford, Mississippi, but spent most of his childhood and adolescent years in Vermilion, Ohio. As a sergeant in the U.S. Air Force, he was stationed in San Antonio, New York and Alaska.

    Following his service, he worked briefly as a U.S. marshal in Cleveland, Ohio, before settling in Atlanta and joining the Atlanta Police Department as an officer. During his time with APD, Haynie met his wife, Tina.

    After leaving the police force, Haynie worked for nearly 20 years with The Home Depot, moving around the Southeast to manage different stores. He retired from the Tuscaloosa Home Depot.

    He enjoyed a year of retirement, spending his time caring for his yard, being with family, and eagerly awaiting the arrival of his first grandchild, due in October. He could often be found on his back patio with a cigar in one hand and a glass of bourbon in the other, ready to tell stories, listen to “Country Gold,” and enjoy the life he built with his family.

    We’re not sure if God drinks bourbon, but we do know He had a glass of the angel’s share waiting for Randy.

    Honorary pallbearers are Brandon Wheeler, Sean Hall, Darren Dunn, Miles Snider, Jason Nance, Scott Moyer, Matt Dunaway, John Rabun and Haynie’s fellow Home Depot associates.

    He was preceded in death by his mother, Rachel Haynie, and his nephew, JD Taylor.

    Survivors include his wife of 38 years, Tina Jo Haynie of Northport; son Chadwick Wayne Haynie (Mary Kathryn) of Northport; stepson Christopher Goodbread of College Park, Georgia; sisters Debbie Hall of Pasadena, Texas, and Sue Taylor (Jack) of Crawfordsville, Indiana; brother David Haynie (Stephanie) of Pasadena, Texas; father David Wayne Haynie (Peggy) of Oxford, Mississippi; nieces and nephews Brandon Wheeler (Holly), Kristen McGaughey (Jordan), Chelsea Dunn (Darren), Sean Hall, Sarah Haynie, Walker Bruce and Dayton Bruce; and many great-nieces and great-nephews who loved him dearly.

    In lieu of flowers, the family suggests donations be made to the RISE Center at the University of Alabama in memory of Randy Haynie.

    It is with heavy hearts and deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Tony Fink, age 80, of Wirtz, Virginia. Tony passed away peacefully on Thursday, July 24, 2025, surrounded by the love of his family.

    A lifelong resident of Franklin County, Tony was a beloved husband, father, grandfather, and friend to many. Known for his kind heart, gentle spirit, and strong work ethic, he spent his life building relationships rooted in faith, love, and service. Tony was a man who never met a stranger and always had time for a neighbor in need or a friend who needed an ear.

    A devout Christian, Tony was a longtime and faithful member of Red Valley United Methodist Church, where he served in various capacities throughout the years. Whether assisting with church maintenance, greeting worshippers on Sunday mornings, or singing along to his favorite hymns, his presence was a consistent source of joy and encouragement to all who knew him in the congregation.

    Tony loved the simple things in life — quiet mornings on the porch, family gatherings filled with laughter, and tending to his garden, which he proudly shared with friends and neighbors. His hands were always busy, whether working on a woodworking project in his shop or helping a neighbor fix a broken fence. But more than anything, Tony treasured his family. He was a proud father and grandfather, never missing a birthday, school play, or Sunday dinner. His love and wisdom will live on through the many lives he touched.

    To celebrate his life and legacy, funeral services will be held at 11 a.m. on Saturday, August 2, 2025, at Red Valley United Methodist Church. Interment will follow in the church cemetery, a place that held great spiritual and personal significance for Tony. His family will receive friends for visitation beginning one hour prior to the service at the church, offering an opportunity to reflect on the many memories shared over his 80 remarkable years.

    The Fink family extends their heartfelt gratitude to the compassionate caregivers and friends who supported Tony in his final days. Your kindness and presence brought peace and comfort during a difficult time.

    Arrangements have been entrusted to Flora Funeral Service and Cremation Center, Rocky Mount, who have served the family with compassion and care.

    Tony’s legacy of love, faith, and kindness will never be forgotten. May he rest in eternal peace, and may his memory continue to inspire all who knew him.

  • It is with heavy hearts and profound sadness that we share the news of the passing of Don Carlock, a cherished founding member of our Kuna post, who was called home to heaven just a few days ago.

    It is with heavy hearts and profound sadness that we share the news of the passing of Don Carlock, a cherished founding member of our Kuna post, who was called home to heaven just a few days ago.

    It is with heavy hearts and profound sadness that we share the news of the passing of Don Carlock, a cherished founding member of our Kuna post, who was called home to heaven just a few days ago. Don was more than just a name on our roster — he was the heartbeat of our post, our trusted treasurer, and a dedicated state representative for Boys State Idaho. His sudden departure leaves a void that words can scarcely describe and hearts are struggling to mend.

    Don’s service to our community spanned decades. He was one of those rare souls who never sought recognition, but whose actions spoke volumes. Whether it was balancing the books with care and integrity, guiding young leaders through the Boys State program, or offering a listening ear to a fellow veteran, Don carried out every task with quiet dignity and unwavering commitment. He was a man who believed in purpose, principle, and people.

    As treasurer, Don was the steward of our post’s financial health, ensuring every dollar was accounted for and used to better the lives of our veterans and the greater Kuna community. But beyond the numbers, Don was the one who greeted everyone with a warm smile at meetings, the one who showed up early to set up chairs and stayed late to clean up. He never asked for thanks — he simply believed in doing the right thing.

    His work with Boys State Idaho reflected his deep belief in the potential of our youth. Don poured his heart into mentoring young men, encouraging them to step up, lead with honor, and understand the value of civic duty. The countless lives he impacted through this program will be his living legacy.

    Kuna has lost a friend, a mentor, a leader, and a brother in arms. For those who knew Don, his memory will remain a guiding light. He embodied everything good about community service: humility, loyalty, generosity, and grace. He was the type of man who left things better than he found them — and he most certainly left us all better for having known him.

    As we mourn his loss, we ask that you keep Don’s beloved family in your prayers. May they find comfort in the love that surrounds them and strength in the knowledge that Don’s spirit lives on in the hearts of all he touched. His absence will be deeply felt at every gathering, every ceremony, and every quiet moment we reflect on those who helped build the foundation of our post.

    Rest easy, Don. You have served your community and your country with honor. Your legacy will never be forgotten, and your impact will continue to shape Kuna for generations to come. We will carry your memory forward with pride, gratitude, and love.

    Gone but never forgotten.

    Mary Lou (McKirahan) Patrick 91, passed away peacefully on July 23, 2025, at her residence. Mary Lou was born to the late Ralph Jay and Ada Aleine (McMillan) McKirahan in Logan County, Ohio. She grew up in Belle Center, Ohio and graduated from Belle Center High School.

    It was at Belle Center High School that she met her lifelong love, Clyde William “Bill” Patrick, during her freshman year of high school. Bill said, “I fell flat on my face in love with her”. Their first date was a daytime basketball game which her father chaperoned. Their romance continued, then became long distance after Bill enlisted in the United States Navy in 1950.

    Mary Lou attended Western Union training in Crawfordsville, Indiana and worked for Western Union in Springfield, Ohio.

    Mary Lou married “Bill” on February 28, 1953, in Belle Center. She then worked for Western Union in Long Beach, California until Bill was discharged from the Navy. Upon returning to Logan County they lived in Northwood in a house her father built. Mary Lou and Bill adopted their sons; Brian Jeffrey Patrick and Alan Lindsay Patrick in 1958 and 1961, respectively. Mary Lou was a devoted sister, farm wife, mother, aunt, grandmother, and friend. She and Bill made memories over their 72-year marriage. A life of dedication to each other, they celebrated their 72nd wedding anniversary together at their home despite her illness.

    She was preceded in death by her parents, son, Brian Patrick, brothers Lee and Larry McKirahan, sisters, Betty Keeling and Charlene Marie “Charlie” Graham and grandson, David Jordan.

    Over her life, she was a den mother for her sons and their fellow Cub Scouts. She was a PTA member at Hardin Northern, and part time librarian for the Hardin Northern Library. At the Walnut Grove Church she held many different volunteer roles including church office secretary, Sunday School teacher, membership secretary, and financial secretary.

    She loved spending time with her siblings, Bill’s family, her nieces and nephews, and friends, especially the card club to which she and Bill belonged for over 40 years. Mary Lou enjoyed cooking and baking and was one of the most hospitable people you would ever meet. It was not unusual for her to have casseroles and desserts frozen, ready for unexpected guests. She was often found playing Scrabble, working crossword puzzles, Sudoku, and Crypto quotes, caring for plants, and researching her family’s genealogy. She also had talents for painting and playing the piano.

    Left to treasure her memory and continue her legacy in addition to her husband Bill, are her beloved sister, Ruth Ann Gmyrek, son, Alan (Vicki) Patrick, grandchildren: Shaun, Lindsay, and their mother, Sandy; grandchildren; Catherine, Christine, Crystal, Richard, great grandchildren; Mia, Makala, Elijah, Joseph, as well as many nieces, nephews, and friends who she loved dearly.

  • With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Sabrina “Sam” Lynn Hambrick Harris, age 50, of Covington, Georgia, and formerly of Buchanan. Sabrina departed this life peacefully on Tuesday, July 22, 2025, leaving behind a legacy of love, strength, and unwavering devotion to her family and friends.

    With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Sabrina “Sam” Lynn Hambrick Harris, age 50, of Covington, Georgia, and formerly of Buchanan. Sabrina departed this life peacefully on Tuesday, July 22, 2025, leaving behind a legacy of love, strength, and unwavering devotion to her family and friends.

    With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Sabrina “Sam” Lynn Hambrick Harris, age 50, of Covington, Georgia, and formerly of Buchanan. Sabrina departed this life peacefully on Tuesday, July 22, 2025, leaving behind a legacy of love, strength, and unwavering devotion to her family and friends.

    Born in 1975, Sabrina grew up in Buchanan, where she made lifelong friendships and formed a deep bond with her community. She was known for her radiant spirit, boundless compassion, and her knack for bringing people together. A woman of quiet strength and fierce loyalty, Sabrina was someone you could always count on — whether for a warm smile, a listening ear, or a helping hand in times of need.

    Affectionately called “Sam” by those closest to her, she carried that nickname with pride. It spoke to her easygoing nature, sense of humor, and the joy she found in simply being herself. Her laughter was contagious, and her kindness left a lasting impression on all who had the pleasure of knowing her.

    Sabrina was preceded in death by her beloved mother, whose memory she cherished deeply throughout her life. That bond shaped the loving woman Sabrina became — nurturing, resilient, and always putting others before herself. She honored her mother’s legacy through her actions and by raising her own family with the same devotion and care she once received.

    Throughout her life, Sabrina found fulfillment in many roles — as a daughter, wife, mother, sister, and friend. But most of all, she found her greatest joy in her family. She was a fierce protector of those she loved and gave selflessly to ensure their happiness and well-being. Her home was a place of comfort, laughter, and love — a safe haven to all who entered.

    In Covington, Sabrina continued to share her kindness with those around her, always leaving a trail of goodness wherever she went. Whether it was through her work, her community involvement, or her acts of quiet generosity, she lived a life that reflected grace and integrity.

    Sabrina’s passing leaves an irreplaceable void in the lives of those who knew and loved her. While the grief is deep, her memory will forever be etched in our hearts. Her legacy lives on in the laughter of her children, the stories shared by friends, and the values she instilled in everyone she touched.

    As we mourn her loss, we also celebrate the beautiful life she lived. A life that taught us the power of love, the importance of resilience, and the beauty of a kind heart. Though she may no longer be with us in body, Sabrina’s spirit will forever guide us, uplift us, and inspire us to live fully and love deeply.

    A memorial service to honor Sabrina’s life will be held in the coming days, with details to be announced by the family. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made in Sabrina’s memory to a charity close to her heart — one that reflects her lifelong commitment to helping others.

    Rest peacefully, Sabrina “Sam” Harris. You will be forever missed, deeply loved, and eternally remembered.
