Dr. Brown and family have known my family for as long as I can remember. When my father died in 2019, he was the first person to reach out to us. He worked with our parent's at then the old St Paul under Rev. Williams. I am still sad upon hearing of his passing. Rest in peace Dr. Brown

To Mrs. Ann & Asia and Family,
Sending my Deepest Sympathy to you and the Family on the passing of Dr. Brown and ask God to be with you in the following days, months and years.
I first met Dr. Brown in 1978 throughout the Edisto Schools and most recently when my 2 boys came thru and graduated in 2014, 2017. During these years we became close due to the boys being in band and chorus. April was always a great time to look forward to go on the Heritage Music Festival trips with Dr. Brown, Ms. Thrett, Mrs. Sharperson, Dr. Darby. Looked forward to those times together. Dr. Brown took my oldest son and 3 other gentlemen to sing at Carnegie Hall in 2013 after winning the opportunity in Orlando.
Doc is in Heaven singing with the Angels on High. He will be forever remembered in my heart.
Respectfully,
Jimmy Hardee
EHS Class 1984

Jerome and I go a long way back. We worked at several different places. The first, Camp Daniels as counselors and I, as a lifeguard. He was a great individual and always provided me with a smile. Condolences to the family.

I would like to thank Dr. Brown´s family for sharing him with William J Clark Middle School. He was an exceptional colleague and friend. He was always willing to help in any situation and you could count on him to give his best. We will truly miss him.

A wonderful gentleman I had the pleasure of teaching with at Carver-Edisto Middle School. His infectious smile and gracious demeanor are what I will remember most; thoughts and prayers for all who had the privilege of knowing Dr. Brown.
