Kevin Charles Brown

BROWN, Kevin Charles, was called home by God in His infinite wisdom on Saturday, August 9, 2008. "KC" or "Bro," as he was often called, was always full of laughter and a true friend to many. He had a jovial personality, and loved working for the U.S. Postal Service more than anything. Kevin, born September 21, 1956, was the beloved son of the late Deacon Charles and Ruby Brown. K.C. accepted Jesus Christ as his savior at an early age by his baptism at Swansboro Baptist Church, Pastor H.R. Plummer. He later joined St. Paul's Baptist Church where he served as a dedicated usher. Kevin graduated from George Wythe High School in June of 1974. He loved to travel and was an avid sports fan. He played basketball and football in high school, as well as in the military. Upon his discharge from the military, he was employed by the U.S. Postal Service. In his 30 plus years of employment with the U.S.P.S., he was very active in the Union. He served as a shop steward, as well as a term as the maintenance craft director. Kevin was preceded in death by his brother, Charles Kevin Brown; and his sister, Brenda L. Smith. He leaves to cherish his precious memories his devoted wife of 16 years, Gail Brown; daughter, Ariana Brown; loyal sister, Sandi Brown Jones; his nieces, Tenesha Britton, Diondra Jones; his cousin/brother, Eugene LeGare; and his sincere, genuine friend, Tab Mines; along with a great host of other relatives and close friends.
