Ted was preceded in death by his father Ted Brown, Sr. and Grandparents Anna and Roosevelt Brown and Charles and Charlotte Miller.
Ted is survived by his children Jaylyn Brown, Nick Brown, and Trenton Brown, his companion Sherry Resse, and his mother Cindy Miller. He is also survived by his half-sisters Sandra Miller and Crissie Brown and half-brother Jeremy Brown.
He loved his children, Jaylyn, Nick, and Trenton, his companion Sherry, and his mother Cindy.
Ted served honorably in The US Navy for over six years where he was awarded the National Defense Service Medal, Southwest ASIA Service Medal, Navy Unit Commendation, Navy Good Conduct Medal, Sea Service Deployment Ribbon, .45 Cal Pistol Sharpshooter, and the Kuwaitti Liberation Medal.
Ted like to fish and hunt. He was a big fan of Star wars and believed in “the force be with you”. In addition to hunting and fishing, Ted loved to eat out. Some of his favorite places to eat were Boo Ray, Natty Flats Bar-B-Que, Hoffbrau Steak and Grill and Panda Express. He was an avid gun and sword collector. Ted loved his dogs, Hooch and Sophie. He love to read when he had his sight. His morning routine was to read the paper and drink a good cup of coffee. His favorite genre in books was science fiction and fantasy. He was passionate about his support and love for the Dallas Cowboys. He was always grateful for the kidney he received in October 2010 which released him from dialysis and gave him time to raise and support his children to be the young adults they are today.
His companion Sherry describes Ted: “As my teddy bear and I loved him with all my heart. He was aspiring with knowledge of a person that just wanted people to be happy and get along. He would help just about anyone that needed help and not expect anything in return except for respect. I will always miss him.”
Ted’s mother Cindy describes Ted: “He will always be ‘Teddy’ and my number one son. He will be missed by many. He leaves a void in my heart that at times is overwhelming. I believe if we could get a glimpse of what heaven is like, we would not wish for him to come back. He is no longer in pain; he can see and walk again and no one can cause him pain or grief anymore. He is in God’s hands now and is finally at peace.”
