Deacon Brown fondly referred to as “Brother Brown” will certainly be missed at Bible Way. His fiery testimonies and dedication to Sunday School leaves a huge hole in those areas. I am glad I was able to get to know Deacon Brown and will smile at those fond memories.
“God has this.”

Alker, when you came home all you wanted to do was enjoy life. We had a ball those first 3 years. You manage to do everything you wanted to before leaving earth. A crazy man with goals and reached them. Tell your brother Sylvester I said hello give Ruby a kiss for me. Love you guys.
Please accept our deepest sympathy.
May your memories console you and may God sustain you with his precious promise to someday soon reunite us with our love ones. With caring thoughts.
