Barry Alan Browne

Barry Alan Browne was born to Earl Franklin Browne and Dorothy Griffin Browne in Dallas, Texas on July 24,1944, and died in Georgetown, Texas on February 18, 2026. He married Ann Norton on June 12,1971 in Bay Village, Ohio. Both attended undergraduate school at Southwestern University in Georgetown, which was the wonderful connection that got them together. At the heart of his story was Ann, his life partner of 55 years. Ann kept her marriage vows by caring beautifully for Barry as his health declined. He really, truly felt that he was "home" whenever she was around.

Barry graduated from Jefferson High School in San Antonio and completed his undergraduate degree at Southwestern University in Georgetown. He then taught English Literature at the University of Texas where he also was also the dorm director for the UT football team.

Barry completed a dual Doctorate degree at the Health Science Center medical school at San Antonio in Biomedical Sciences and The University of Texas at Austin College of Pharmacy, specializing in pharmacokinetics to treat patients with drug interaction and intervention issues.

His love of medicine brought him to serve at Baylor Scott and White in Temple, TX where he spent decades guiding medical residents as a Doctor of Pharmacology and Associate Professor for Texas A&M medical school, specializing in drug information and pediatric and internal medicine, leaving a legacy of healing and hope.

Barry was a literate, kind, and generous man, fiercely loving and loyal to his wife, Ann, and a large chosen family of longtime friends and former coworkers.

The family would like to thank Grace Episcopal Church for prayers and presence, Esther Lopez Garcia, a beloved family friend, Claire and Penny with Enhabit Hospice and the entire staff at Brookdale Senior Living for steady care and encouragement.

Funeral services will be held at Grace Episcopal Church, 1314 E. University Avenue, Georgetown, TX, April 18 at 11:00 followed by a reception in the parish hall where others attending will be asked to share stories about Barry.
