BURGAW — It is with profound sadness that we share the passing of Charles Leamon Brown, a wonderful Christian man, on Thursday, August 29, 2024.
Leamon was born February 8, 1939, in Duplin County, the son of Herbert S. Brown and Alma Fountain Brown. In addition to his parents Leamon was preceded in death by his sister, Lena Bradham.
He is survived by his beloved wife of forty-two years, Faye Wells Brown; son, Brent L. Brown; daughter, Jessica Hudson; grandchildren, Kelsey Justice (Christopher), Ashleigh Hudson, Gabriel Hudson and Jameson Littleton; great grandchildren, Bennett Charles Cleary, and June Elizabeth Williams; sister, Regenia Simmons (Milford); brother, Warren Brown (Gladys); many extended family members and friends.
For two years Leamon served his country honorably in the US Army. He was a long-time devoted member of Burgaw Presbyterian Church where over the years he served the Lord in many capacities including being a deacon and elder.
Whether hunting, fishing or just walking in the woods Leamon loved the outdoors and all of God’s bountiful world of nature. He enjoyed many hours of fellowship with his hunting and fishing buddies. Leamon was a man of God, thoughtful of others, and always willing to lend a helping hand when needed. Most of all Leamon loved his family and will be truly missed.
A memorial service will be 1 p.m. Wednesday, September 4, 2024, at Burgaw Presbyterian Church with Pastor Robert Bayley conducting the service. The family will receive friends following the service in the church fellowship hall.
