Brown was one of my most favorite people in the world. Though I have only seen him a handful of times in the last few years, I did spend time with him quite a bit over the last 20 years. Brown was a delightful man tha I got to know through River Parks, Oktoberfest and working for him. One of the few men I knew that was a gourmet cook, he was a lay architect, an actor De-luxe and an interesting and inspirational man! I truly enjoyed his company. I will miss our occasional meats in the grocery store, catching up on all that has or has not gone on in our lives...children, grandchildren, life in general. Be happy and free, my friend...and whomp up some good eats...Can we start with salmon??? Best wishes to Chris and Jamie and their families. You will be missed my friend, you will be missed.

I am saddened to read the loss of Brown. He and I go back to our early college days at Northeastern State College in Tahlequah. Our most recent time was spent discussing motorcycle riding and fly fishing. I will miss him. My sympathy to his family for their loss.

I am deeply saddened to hear that Brown has died. At one time, he was a man who enjoyed life-his friends, his volunteer activities, his woodworking, good parties, car racing, and the blues, especially BB King. I was a first-hand witness to how much he also loved Chris and Jamie. He gave up a lot for them. Part of my heart will always be with Brown. Please remember him for his happier times.
