November 2, 2012, she married the love of her life, Michael Alan Brown. Sereese was a member of Eastside Baptist Church. She was a lady of strong faith with a beautiful smile and easy nature. Her positive attitude was contagious. Sereese loved the beach, camping, and fishing. She was a funny, loving Grammie, who deeply loved her family. A beautiful person, inside and out, all her wonderful attributes can’t be put into one paragraph. She lived her faith, was generous to help others, and simply will not be forgotten.
