Pat - Janice and Rickie. I just learned that Chuckie passed the other day. This is Don Ferguson (Donnie) from Providence Park.
He and I chatted a few months ago - and recalled a lot of the great memories we had when we were kids. Back then, he was literally my best friend - we did all sorts of things together (remember the rabbits).
We are sending our prayers from Michigan.
Love Donnie

Mr. Brown, beloved Benjamin. I treasured our time together. Your faith, courage, & love for the Lord was felt and seen. Your room was always filled with joyful souls visiting you. I know why, knowing you made me joyful. In those last days we shared , I was honored to be able to recite scripture with you while we held hands. John 3:16. The life of Deacon Brown is everlasting. Fondly, Ashley D Hodge, RN University of Maryland Medical Center
