Dave Browning Obituary

Dave Wilson Browning, age 62, after a long struggle with health issues went to be with his Lord and Savior on April 14, 2020.

Dave is survived by his wife, Beate Browning; daughter, Eliora Browning; mother, Charlotte Devilla Browning; two sisters, Cheryl Collins and husband Sonny; Stacy Easley and husband Steve; two nieces, two nephews, two great-nieces and one great-nephew. He was preceded in death by his father, J.W. Browning, Jr.. Dave was a talented musician and song writer. He wrote several Christian songs, most notably "Take Me In", which has been recorded by many Christian artists. Dave loved the Lord and hoped that all who knew him would celebrate his life.

Hallo Beate, ich habe Dave leider nie kennenlernen dürfen. Es tut mir, dass Du ihn so früh verloren hast. Ich hoffe, Dein Glaube hilft Dir jeden Tag mit dem Verlust zu leben. Liebe Grüße aus der alten Heimat, Jens

Beate, I am so so sorry for your loss. What a young age to depart. I am just listening to the worship set from the Jesus´18 conference and worship leader Jeremy Riddle sings the beautiful song the LORD entrusted to him at 47:21. I hope that you are grieving well, and be blessed. https://youtu.be/_44ruXx_Xg4?si=MBT24ZjgHfuYBedQ

Leroy, I am Dave's widow. Thank you for posting your message. It is always a blessing to hear that the song Dave wrote is still touching lives. Our Lord is faithful and good.

I am not sure who will read this, or if anyone will. But I am once again, sitting at the radio, listening to "Take Me In", it is a song that has been instrumental to my walk with the Lord. This song, so many years later, is making a difference right here where I am sitting. A South African at work in Tanzania. For the first time I actually did some research as to who actually wrote and composed the song. It is one of those songs that will be sung forever. Even when we are with the Lord I believe. I bet Dave regularly sings it where he is presently. He is in the best place he can be. I am sorry for his family that will miss him. May the Lord of Peace be with you.
