CLEVELAND, Tenn. — After being told one of her five sisters was murdered, eldest sister Lorene Womack of Cleveland set out to find the truth about a sister she had not seen in 55 years.
What she discovered was the importance of perseverance and how fundamental faith and hope are in fortifying a family.
Lorene Womack, 64, said she had not seen her sister, Glenda Brown, since she was nine and Glenda was seven.
“Mom and dad seperated,” said Womack. “Dad took Glenda when she was 2 years old and moved away. Both of them remarried. Later dad passed away. Glenda was 7 the last time I saw her.”
According to Womack, some of her younger sisters did not remember Glenda. Their mother, Virginia Quinn, last saw Glenda 23 years ago, but never gave up hope of seeing her second oldest daughter again.
