Obituary: William Charles Brown, known as TGUB (The Great Uncle Bill) to many, was larger than life and a constant source of inspiration to those around him. The eldest of William Charles Brown Sr. & Georgia Elizabeth Browns nine children, Bill Brown was born on 6, 1933 in Chicago, Illinois. He was the epitome of his mothers wish for her children and grandchildren, embracing the importance of education and integrity as he became a true Renaissance Man. He grew up in Kansas City, Missouri and attended the University of Kansas City, Arts Program. He was an excellent student, performed in college plays, and led both the French and Spanish clubs on campus. His exemplary talents were quickly recognized on a national level when he became a recipient of the Woodrow Wilson Fellowship, which provided a select group of students at the top of their class complete scholarships to attend graduate school anywhere in the country. As one of only 159 men and women in the US and Canada, he was the only recipient in the Kansas City area.

Obituary: William Thomas Brown, Jr. Dec. 6, 1919 - Jan. 15, 2014 Tom Brown (as friends and family knew him) was born in Ft. Worth, Texas at 8:30 a.m. on a morning, to 16-year-old Louollie Lanham Brown and 19-year-old William Thomas Brown. It was a marriage that lasted a lifetime. When Tom was a small child, his father and grandfather were wildcatters, drilling for oil. Riches came and went. At age five, he moved with his parents and little sister, Jenny, to Three Sands, Oklahoma. He often spoke of his wonderful childhood in the oil fields. His father worked in a Shell Oil refinery, and the family lived in company housing, called a shotgun house. His little brother, Jimmy, was born there. Tom talked about how his dad used to drive the three children seven miles upstream to Tonkawa so they could skate home, down the frozen river. His father also brought home tracks and boxes from the refinery and built a roller coaster for the kids. Tom went to prep school in Tonkawa, where he learned to play the French horn and coronet, and was a member of the glee club. In fifth grade, he was inspired to set his sights on becoming President of the United States. Eventually he went to work and planned to buy his grandfather Pochells farm in Mule Shoe, Oklahoma. In the process, he came to know everyone in the congressional district. But all that changed with Pearl Harbor. graduating from Northern Oklahoma University, he enrolled in officers training at Notre Dame, and became an Ensign in the Naval Reserve. He was first assigned to Coastal Patrol in San Diego, but was quickly reassigned to the Pacific Fleet Amphibious Force as a Gunfire Spotter. He was sent to Fort Ord for training, and learned to dig foxholes, and assemble an M-1 rifle blindfolded. Then it was off to the island of Attu, aboard the U.S.S. Zylon, to take it back from the Japanese. He landed on the beach on May 9, 1943, as forward observer (fire support). One night on Attu there was a lull in the gunfire, and Tom crawled to his buddy Charlies foxhole to share some coffee. Upon his return, he found that his hold had taken a direct hit from mortar fire. Tom then went on to San Diego, Hawaii, and Guam. He was there for the liberation of Guam, and each year since he received a Christmas card from the Island. On the 60th anniversary of the liberation, he received a letter of gratitude and a Medal of Valor. He had helped win the battle by ordering star shells fired to light up the sky all night. While on the Admirals Staff in the Philippines, he was in the control room with his buddy Charlie (once again) when, out of boredom, they moved several ships around just for fun. This ended up trapping a Japanese ship and saving the day. No one ever knew what had happened. On the U.S.S. Appalachian, he toured Yokohama harbor, and walked amongst the ruins of Hiroshima. He was then transferred to a troop ship back to the U.S. to become a troop-train commander. the war he went back to his parents home in Texas, but soon found himself bored, so he stayed in the Navy and taught Naval Gunfire Support, Amphibious Landing, and Shore Bombardment. In 1947, while in San Diego, he attended a Military Officers Club party and met Georgia Miller, who he married 11, 1947. When he called to tell his mother he was getting married, she announced that she was pregnant - Tom got a new baby brother, Larry, when he was 28. Tom was then sent to the North China Sea. He saw a lot of the country and loved the people - their art, food, and language, which he learned to speak fluently during his training in Naval Intelligence. His first child, Elenore Anne (Annie), was born while he was stationed in Bremerton, Washington. Other assignments, and other children, followed. Olivia (Libby) was born at Bethesda Naval Hospital on 9, 1951. The family moved to Formosa in 1952, where Tom was a Naval Attaché to China. Tom liked to say that his third child James (Jimmy) was made in China, but was actually born upon their return stateside, at Fort Ord. Tom was at the Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey to freshen up on submarine warfare. At this point, he was reluctant to re-enlist and leave his family behind. One day, he heard Libby ask Annie what heaven was like. Annie replied that heaven is when Daddy is home every night. The decision had been made for him. Not long after, Tom received a call from a retired General, Happ Lion, who wanted to teach him the insurance business. He found that he loved it. serving with distinction for 12 years, Tom resigned his commission in 1954 as a Lieutenant Commander. Tom found that the insurance field offered a challenging and rewarding career - one that he pursued for more than fifty years. Beginning in Monterey, he soon moved to Carmel to enter the insurance department at Carmel Realty. In 1959 he started his own business, and within eight years had received honors in both the Life Insurance and General Insurance fields. His business became one of the largest in Carmel, with the original staff of one quickly growing 15. The Life Insurance Fraternity honored him by making him a member of the Million Dollar Round Table for selling more than one million dollars in insurance. He was the recipient of this award three times. He also received the Most Outstanding Agency in the United States Award from the State Life Insurance of Indianapolis. Tom always served his community. He was on the Church Vestry, and was a 50-year Rotarian and one-time president. He was Chairman of the Red Cross, and President of the Carmel Association of Insurance Agents. Tom not continued... |
