Zachary William Brown entered our lives on February 27th, 1989 born in Fort Smith, Arkansas to Denise and Joey. A beautiful baby boy with wide wondering eyes. As a toddler and small child, he could quickly steal your heart with his warm hugs, inviting smile and funny antics. "You silly wabbit", "somebody stop me" and "love you more" were some of his favorite phrases he called out as he raced by. The family moved to Monroe where they lived on the Reed Family Farm, plenty of room for Joe, Zach and Lacee to roam. Zach started School in Monroe and attended until the family moved to Colorado when he was in the fourth grade. As is common with Coloradans he fell in love with the area and the out of doors. He loved camping, hiking, snowboarding, and any outdoor activity. He quickly gathered new friends and considered Colorado home. Most of the family slowly drifted back to Oklahoma in 2010, Zach included. He went to work in the oil and gas industry and was stationed most recently in Western Texas. Zach never lost the curiosity behind those wondering eyes or his ability to capture your heart. He loved family, friends, nature’s beauty, music and sports Go Lakers and Titans. We can only imagine the view from where he sits today. No boundaries now baby, no boundaries now. Thank you, Lord, for allowing us our time with him. He was loved by many and will not soon be forgotten.

  1. May the God of all comfort ease your hearts as you mourn the loss of your beloved.I personally have found great solace during times of loss reflecting on the hope of the ressurection. How wonderful to reflect on being reunited with our loved ones. (Acts 24:15, John 5:28,29) We long for the time when the enemy death is no more (1 Corinthians 15:26, Revelation 21:3,4). As you remember the life you have shared together and reflect on these promises may your hearts find a measure of peace.
