Obituary

Aaron Ross Brown, son of David and DeLee Brown, passed from this life on Thursday, October 4 2018. He passed away at his family home in Salem Oregon.

Aaron was a young man bestowed with a generous nature, a deep love for his family and friends, and a sense of humor that could light up any room. He enjoyed his association with the Boy Scout program and was an avid camper. Shortly before his death he completed all of the requirements for his Eagle rank and his parents are extremely proud of this accomplishment.

Aaron enjoyed, at various times throughout his life, playing baseball and football, attending live sporting events, spending time with his friends, and singing in his mom’s elementary school choir and his dad’s choir at the high school. He served with honor in church and scout assignments and was a valued employee at the carwash where he worked.

Aaron is survived by his father and mother, David and DeLee Brown. Funeral services for Aaron will take place on Thursday, October 11 at 2:00 pm with a public viewing beginning at noon. Services will be held at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 4550 Lone Oak Road Southeast in Salem. All are welcome.

In lieu of flowers/gifts the family requests that you consider making a donation to the Aaron Ross Brown Memorial fund see link below which will help with final expenses as well as provide a continuing scholarship for future choir students at Sprague High.

    I had the opportunity to be a home teacher to the Brown family. I loved our monthly visits and to feel the spirit of love in their home. I also taught Aaron in Primary for several years. Despite of him being a little "pill" sometimes, we always shared fist bumps at church. I grew to love this young man and know he is destined to do great work on the other side. I love the Browns.

    God Bless you.
