For most of his 85 years, he lived at 1918 Jamestown Road near Bishopville with his wife of 65 years, Elizabeth D. Brown. He worked for Wando Furniture Co. for many years. Later in life he and Elizabeth were known for wood crafts they made and sold, but mostly for their large garden. In early morning he could be seen on his little blue tractor as he plowed the beans, okra, tomatoes, and on and on the garden went. Always the garden was a beauty thanks to Momma’s prayers and their hard work. They often sold to local grocery stores the fruits of their labor. Even as winter came his truck was loaded with sweet potatoes and collards, and neighbors were stopping by to purchase them even on holidays. The past few years, he only planted sunflowers so he could pick them every day for Momma. He was born in Great Falls and was the son of the late Henrietta Arledge Brown and Harmon Brown of Great Falls. He was preceded in death by a sister and four brothers. He leaves behind four sisters; his wife, Elizabeth; three sons, Robert L. Brown of Cassatt and John Wayne Brown (Jenni) and Randy R. Brown (Kay), both of Bishopville; a daughter, Judy McLeod (Wilbur) of Bishopville; 12 grandchildren; and 20 great-grandchildren.
