Joe Brown Obituary

Joe Brown

Asheville - A Memorial Service for Little Joe Brown will be held Saturday, April 28, 2018 at the Asheville Masonic Temple, located at 80 Broadway Street, Asheville, NC from 2pm to 4pm. Little Joe was a local well known radio personality and a native of Avery County, NC. His two favorite sayings over airwaves through the years were, "The Top 7000" because he played whatever music he wanted and did not follow the Program Directors Log and the capital of the world is Cranberry, NC where he was born and raised.

The family would like to invite anyone who has a special memories of our Father to please come and share them with us. We want to celebrate his life and legacy.
