Robert W. Brown Jr., our devoted husband and loving father, passed away Sunday, December 3, 2017, at the age of 79. Cremation will take place with a private burial to follow at a later date. Robert was born November 6, 1938, the son of Robert Sr. and Dorothy (Harper) Brown. He married the love of his life, Suzanne Ritchie in 1961, and together the two grew their family to include three children. Robert worked for Ford Motor Company in Dearborn, MI.
