Brian Brown Obituary

Brian Wayne Brown 1974-2024
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Brian Wayne Brown, of Grangeville, ID,
a devoted family man who left us on September 21, 2024 at the age of 50.
Brian was born August 24, 1974 in Redding, CA to Bruce and Doria Brown.
From an early age, Brian displayed a deep love for the outdoors. Whether it was hunting, riding
his horse or simply working the land. His hands were always busy-building, tending, or helping
anyone in need. Brian also had a special passion for country music and dancing. Nothing
brought him more joy than kicking up his heels with family at gatherings, where laughter and
music filled the air. Whether at a local event or at home with loved ones, his love for a good time
and a lively dance embodied his joyful, down-to-earth spirit. He loved those moments of
celebration and connection, always bringing energy and warmth wherever he went.
However, what defined him most was his unwavering love for his family, especially his cherished
wife, Heidi, whom he had known since they were just children in the second grade and had just
had the great privilege of celebrating their 30th anniversary. Their love story was one for the
ages and their bond was an inspiration to all who knew them. Brian was a dedicated father, and
his love for his children is boundless. His legacy will live on in their hearts.
Brian is survived by his loving wife, Heidi, son Cody Brown, daughter Kayle Brown, his parents,
Doria and Bruce, his brother Roy Brown, and a wide circle of extended family and friends. He is
now at rest, watching over the land he loved, the music that moved him, and the family he
adored.
Brian's life was a testament to the power of love, family. His absence leaves a hole that can
never be filled, but his memory will continue to guide and comfort those who knew him.
A celebration of his life will be held on a later date, where stories will be shared, tears will be
shed, and his spirit will be remembered.
Rest in peace, Brian. You will be forever be in our hearts.
