He also loved camping trips and traveling across country with family, in his motor home. Of late he enjoyed sitting in the front or backyard at home talking with neighbors or enjoying the view of the mountains. He was not given to long conversations, but his presence and demeanor spoke volumes. Many knew him as Mr. Brown, a man who always greeted you with a smile and hello. We knew him as our Father. All his life, Ted was a hard working man, who loved our mother, a faithful and devoted husband he was her other half to their whole. Most importantly he loved Jesus. The foundation, on which he lived his life, raised his children and loved his wife. We loved him dearly and he will be missed everyday for the rest of our days here on earth. We love you to the Heavens and Back.
