Please keep my family in your thoughts and prayers.

My Dad, Donald A Brown, Clemson Forestry class of 1965, has finally received mercy from any suffering, pain, or misery and passed into God's hands last night (early this morning)... as a result of Alzheimers. He is certainly in a better place now and we can all be comforted for him and be relieved to witness no longer any prolonged discomfort. We will miss you Don Brown, but you left a great legacy, a great example for others, and a tough act to follow in your wake! He was a devout tiger, as dad was there the last time we won the national title in '81. He is also the main reason for my brothers and my attending Clemson and studying forestry also... How wonderful would it be to top off memories of him with another one!?
Lord please be with my mom, Lana brother Donnie, and my whole family and friends, as we get through this and look forward to New Life through the recent birth of my brother's daughter.
We'll have visitation Monday, the funeral Tuesday, at Central United Methodist - Newberry. Whitaker Funeral home is making arrangements.
Anyone traveling for the holidays or whomever may know my family and intend to lend us your support, please be very careful! And thank you to everyone who has assisted us and been there during these difficult times! Always be thankful for the time we have! God bless!
Go Tigers! Jacob Brown - Clemson Forestry '99

I am so sorry you lost your father so close to Christmas. However, in a positive light your father is now with Jesus Christ at peace and with a new body in Christ. Your father is in the best place possible. It's painful for those left behind but only for a time. One day you will be reunited with you father in paradise.
My family will lift you and your family up in prayers and may God give you comfort, strength and peace through this difficult time.

Undoubtedly, your father probably had my father as his forestry professor, since my dad signed on and taught there from '61 to '96. (My father passed in 01).

He is without a doubt in a better place with no more pain...though we will suffer some pain from our loss, but we can have solace in knowing that we do not have to witness it, or him be a part of the misery anymore. I wish everyone a very merry Christmas as well and as happy of holidays as you could possibly have, along with safety and love, and time well spent with family and loved ones!
Go Tigers!!! From the Brown family Clemson Alumni, and let's win some for the fallen! ??

If we make it to the Natty, my boys and I are going to go and each wear one his vintage Clemson hats, sweat-stained and all.
Our prayers are with you and your family.

Very sorry for your loss Jacob. I understand the mixture of emotions when you mourn the loss of someone you dearly love while celebrating their enormous gain by being with the Lord. Lost my dad last February and my mom has dementia now. I haven't seen you in years, but I have been praying for your family (thanks to Mike Brice's updates). I will continue to lift all of you up in prayer. Blessings Bro!
