Rodney Lee Brown

He went away so suddenly we did not say goodbye . But brothers can’t be parted precious memories never die. ** You gave me a brother you taught me to dream You gave me a brother you made us a team. You gave me a brother you taught me to smile. You gave me a brother for such a short while. You gave me a brother you taught me to treasure You gave me a brother whose love I couldn’t measure. You gave me a brother you taught friendship to grow You gave me a brother whose fate I couldn’t know. You gave me a brother you taught me to love You gave me a brother who is now up above. You gave me a brother you gave me hope He took my brother now please, teach me to cope.** Rodney Lee Brown (Rod), the beloved son of the late Leland W. and Exie D.
