Not sure what to say?

My name is Michael Panzera. In the late 1960's and early 1970's I played football with the LI Tomahawks. I never realized what a great man and warrior and hero Roscoe was until I was much older and I too went to war. I do remember when my father Anthony, also a combat veteran and hero, introduced me to Roscoe. My father said, this is Dr. Brown. Roscoe, smiled and shook my hand and said call me Roscoe, Dr. Brown is my father. I will never forget that.

Regards,

MAJ Michael...

It was an honor to know Dr. Roscoe Brown. He was full of energy and took pleasure on every step he took thru the hall at the Graduate Center. Always a gentleman. Just to watch him walk put a smile on my face. He always had one for me. May he rest in peace. My sincere condolences to his family.

Dr, Brown was a teacher and role model for me while I was a student at NYU.Condolences to the Brown family.

May the family of Mr. Brown find peace and comfort during the difficult days ahead. Sending our warm condolences

He truly straightened up and flew right. Thank you for your service.

An honor and a privilege to meet you Sir. Fair Winds.
