Bishop Adam J. Parker, vicar general of the archdiocese, praised Brashears in a letter to Catholic Center employees, saying she “was known to show her upbeat spirit and energy to all whom she encountered.”
“She was passionate about the mission to which she was so dedicated and was known by so many friends and benefactors of the archdiocese as a person of warmth, compassion and hope,” Bishop Parker said.
