In Memory Of
H. Charles Brown
H. Charles Brown
H. Charles (Charlie) Brown of Westminster, Colorado was born October 21, 1928 in Grand Junction, Colorado to Maymie and Luther Brown. He passed away on November 5, 2006 at the age of 78 after losing a battle with cancer. He is survived by his wife: Lois Mae (Gram) Brown; their 4 children Kenneth C. of Richmond, KY, Michael D. of Rifle, Colorado, Patricia J. Key of Fort Collins, Colorado, and Gary A. of Thornton Colorado; 9 grandchildren; 1 sister; and numerous extended family.
Charles and Lois were married for 58 years. He served in the US Navy as a photographer during the Korean War. He never changed companies but for over 40 years the company, Eastman Kodak/Trek Photographic/VWR Scientific/Dixon Paper, changed under him. He sold, serviced, trained users, and maintained photo processing equipment for the Rocky Mountain area. Some of his customers were police departments and newspapers.
When you look in the dictionary under ethical, Charlie Brown was there. He was a perfectionist, if it was worth doing at all, do it right.
Charlie Brown being from a musical family, encouraged his children to learn music. As a result, his children learned to play around a dozen instruments. With the grandchildren learning several also. During those years of concerts from elementary school through high school, Charlie Brown recorded every one and today they fill 52 CD's. At times band directors would ask to hear an old concert and Charlie Brown had the tape.
Charlie Brown believed in repairing things himself and passed this handyman trait on to his children. Early on he was a professional photographer. He enjoyed working with wood with projects at home, work, church, and schools. During his retirement he helped a lot of people learn computers and get on the Internet, he helped his church upgrade the sound system and trained the operators.
Charlie Brown will be missed by many.
Memorial Services will be held at 10:00 am. on Monday Nov. 13th at Westminster Presbyterian Church, 3990 W. 74th Ave. Westminster, Colorado with Inurnment at Ft. Logan National Cemetery at 12 noon.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests that memorials be made to the Westminster Presbyterian Church or Hospice of Peace at http://www.centurahealthathome.org/index.php?s=community_connection_2, or a charity of donors choice.
