Ryan Brown Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Passalacqua Funeral Chapel on Dec. 10, 2022.
Ryan Adam Brown, age 24, passed away at home on December 3, 2022, in Benicia, CA. He is survived by his mother, Molly Stafford; father Dana Brown; brothers Matt Brown and Mark Anthony Stafford Jr.; grandfather, James Perry; grandmother Lynne Perry; half- sister, Alyssa Brown; uncle James (Buzzy) Brown; cousin Makayla Brown; step-father Mark Stafford, step sisters Courtney Stafford, Rachel Stafford, Amanda Stafford and step brother JT Stafford.
Ryan was born at Sutter Solano on July 10, 1998 in Vallejo, California. He lived his entire life in Benicia and graduated from Benicia High School in 2016. He attended one year at Solano College. Since that time he worked at Stanley Steamer, Amazon as a delivery driver, and most recently, Door Dash. He was looking forward to attending Solano College again in the Spring to study Graphic Design.
He went through childhood until the time he passed, with his greatest and loyal friends: Shevy Franklin, Max Petersen, Jerediah Branicki, Tyler Collette and many others. When asked by his friends to describe Ryan they said the number one thing they think of is Ryan's laugh. Ryan loved "bling", Giants Baseball, clothes, and playing football in middle school and high school with his friends. Ryan had a great sense of humor, and enjoyed debating the topics of the day. He loved history and talking to family and friends. Ryan was looking forward to his new role as "Uncle" to Shevy Franklin's new baby "Lil Shev".
Services will be held at Passalacqua Funeral Chapel in Benicia, CA at 10 a.m. on Saturday, December 17th
In lieu of flowers, Ryan would want donations be made to "Lil Shev" in a savings account to grow with him.
