Obituary
Lawrence (Larry) Lee Brown 1940-2020
Lawrence Lee Brown, 80, died October 6, 2020, at his
home surrounded by his family. He was born September
13, 1940, in Rantoul, to Michael and Margaret (Scheurich)
Brown. He married Brenda Joyce Martin on November
30, 1963. He is survived by his wife of 56 years,
Brenda; daughter, Margie (John) Camille of Lincoln;
son, Michael Roy (Michelle) of Lincoln; son Jeramie
(Jessica) of Las Vegas, NV; four grandchildren and
four great-grandchildren, and several nieces,
nephews and cousins and his beloved Boston Terrier,
Buster.
He was preceded in death by his parents, brother
Patrick Brown, sisters Thelma Hmura and Lorretta
Leonard (and Lorretta’s husband Tom), one nephew,
Steven Leonard, and one niece, Christine (Leonard)
Ladd.
Larry was a United States Army veteran. He retired
from Primerica in 2004. |
He was a member of Lincoln First
United Methodist Church. He loved spending time with
his family and friends. He enjoyed golfing, bowling,
baseball, fishing, hunting, working in the yard, and
motorcycle riding. Larry volunteered at the American
Cancer Society Relay for Life, Habitat for Humanity,
and the Food Bank. He was always willing to lend a
hand when someone was in need. He always had a smile
on his face, and you would always hear him
whistling. Larry never met a stranger; he would stop
and talk to anyone.
A visitation will take place from 10:00-11:00 a.m.
on Thursday, October 29, 2020 at
Fricke-Calvert-Schrader Funeral Home in Lincoln. A
