She was also a charter member of the Goose Creek Garden Club.

On Saturday, Brown passed away at the age of 88. She leaves behind her husband, three children, three grandchildren and four great grandchildren.

Her funeral service will be held Tuesday, December 23, 2014 at 11:00 a.m. in Crowfield Baptist Church, 100 Hunters Lane, Goose Creek.
