Brittney Brown Obituary

Brittney Dru Brown
August 7,1971 - May 10, 2016

Brittney Dru Brown, 44, of Yuma was chosen to be the new hair stylist in heaven on May 10, 2016. Born in Yuma, AZ on August 7, 1971 to Ralph Aguiar Jr. and Judith (Johnson) Wombacher. Brittney attended Yuma High School and gradated from Gila Bend High School. Upon graduation she pursued a career in Cosmetology and graduated from the Yuma School of Beauty.

Brittney is preceded in death by her grandfathers Ralph Aguiar Sr. and Roy Johnson; her grandmother Wilma Johnson; stepfather Jim Wombacher; and mother in law Mamie Smith. She is survived by her husband David (Dave) Brown of Yuma; daughters Brea and Daekyn Brown of Yuma; stepson Brandon Brown of Waco, Texas; father Ralph Aguiar Jr; mother Judith Wombacher; sister Brooke Aguiar; and niece McKenna Casas of Yuma; brother in law Keith Smith of Tacoma, WA and sister in law Brenda Smith of Shelbyville, TN. As part of a big family she had one stepbrother and three stepsisters and numerous cousins and close friends.

Her great smile & laugh, charm, compassion & endearing love for people will be deeply missed. While here, she made a lot of people walk out of the beauty salon feeling beautiful. She loved being involved with her girls Brea & Daekyn in FFA and 4H, and never complained about how much she had to do. She always had her scissors in hand to make sure all of the FFA/4H kids could get a trim to look sharp in the show ring.

Desert Valley Mortuary is handling arrangements, including private cremation.

There will be a Celebration of Life at the home of Bobby & Robin Erxleben 5061 E. Mesa View St. Yuma, AZ 85365 at 5pm on May 21, 2016

In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation in Brittney's name to Gila Ridge FFA, Yuma Valley Achievers 4H Club or the Humane Society of Yuma.

I had the pleasure of knowing Britney since we were very young children, so when I say she's been a lifelong friend, I mean it. She was one of the kindest people I've ever met, a friend to all. You could always count on her for a warm hug and some sweet words. She will be missed by so many. Love and sympathies to both immediate and extended family.

Very sorry for your loss, brought back many memories of when I first met Jim, Judy and her girls. Then my daughter became friends with Daken, Britt would drop her off at my house for sleepovers. The girls would roast marsh mellows, ride the golf cart, think Britt had her even driving the truck way back then. -lol.
