My earthly Father passed away last night, May 4, approximate 10:20 p.m. He died in his home at Parkway Village, 7433 surrounded by his 3 sons. Mommy was asleep in the next room, we awoke her around 10:45 to inform her of his passing. My Father is, even in his passing from this life a man of persistence. Never one to waste nor squander. Always a loving husband, father and loyal family member. I have no doubt as to the joyful reunion of many who went before him, upon whom his love unselfishly fell. His labors as a son, husband, father, provider and leader in many righteous endeavors bestowed blessing on not a few. As I think back, even when we did not see eye to eye, his choices, were, most often made to benefit others. Selfishness was not his bent. The evidence is solid. Many shall attest. James Moore Brown was a good man and his reward shall be as his works. Chug chug toot toot off he goes! See you soon Daddy. Jim Jr.
