Dear Carol, Murray and family,
I read with great sadness about the death of Steven in this month's JUF news. Although I did not know Steve as he was so much younger than me, I know that the apple does not fall far from the tree. You both were such outstanding citizens of Waukegan and its Jewish community; he much have been just like you.
I send my condolences. May his memory be for a blessing.
Kind Regards,
Margie Kaiz Offer

I was so sorry to learn of your loss. Steve was one of my best friends growing up in Waukegan. I have wonderful memories of him from BBYO, Sunday school and high school. He was a great guy and a great friend. I am glad that I saw him in the last 10 years or so at a reunion and know his life turned out the way he wanted it to. He was very happy with his family and career.

My wife and I dealt with Pam and Browns for the last year or so as we redecorated our vacation home in Florida. In many store visits looking at samples, Steve always made us feel welcome and often kidded me about my name (same as his Dad's). Pam and family – may you be spared further sorrows and remember the good times you enjoyed with Steve.

To the Brown Family:
As I never met Steve face to face, I was blessed to know him from one of his favorite pass times, NFL football. He was a champion of picking the NFL games in our "Pick Sheet"... Just so happened he was the Champion this past season. He was a true gentleman. We will honor him this upcoming season by naming our future champions with the "Steven Brown Award". He will be missed greatly and our Pick Sheet will be able to honor him every year going forward.
Your family and friends will never forget his life.

Although I have known Steve for many years through our work at Temple, he recently reached out to me and I had the honor of speaking with him on multiple occasions. The quick 5 minutes he said he had available on the phone was actually 35 minutes, the first "one hour" appointment was "two hours," and so on. A great and kind man whose passion was family loved his business. My thoughts and prayers go out to you . Dina Schwartz

Dana: There are no words that can Express my deepest sorrow to you and your wonderful family!! I feel so honored to have developed a wonderful friendship with him of the past few years. Steve was truly an amazing and special man. Steve would light up when he spoke of the love he had for you and spoke of your children he adored. He was so excited when Susie moved back to Fl and becoming a Popa.
Our deepest sympathy to you all.
