Harriet Jean Brown

Harriet Jean (Cox) Brown  was a caring mother, grandmother and friend.  She passed away on May 5, 2022.

Harriet was born on April 15, 1936, in Loving, Texas, and grew up in Graham. She attended Graham High School where she was a drum majorette.  She graduated from the University of Southern Mississippi with a degree in Psychology.   She married Wayne Brown and had three children and a son-in-law: Darryl, Barrie, David, and Jay. She had four grandchildren: Kelly, JD, Kelsey, and Sarah. 

Harriet and her family lived in many places in the US but always spent summers at their lake house on Lake Graham.

Harriet was a talented painter and enjoyed learning about art and literature, visiting many museums across the globe.   She loved opera, ballet and Broadway plays.   She was also an avid tennis player and enjoyed playing bridge.

Harriet spent much of her time in her beautiful backyard in Houston, working in her garden and sitting on the back porch with her friends, her cat, Miss Kitty, and a glass of wine. 

A memorial service will be held at Morrison Funeral Home in Graham, Texas, on May 23, 2022 at 2:00pm.  In lieu of flowers, please consider donating to the Women’s Institute of Houston where Harriet attended many lectures or the Kimball Art Museum in Fort Worth – one of her favorite museums.
