A Memorial Service for Mike Brown, 72 of Roanoke, AL -formerly of Lineville, Al will be held on Saturday, September 10 at 12:00 pm at The Barn- 612 Brown Drive Lineville, Al, with Rev. Pat Hurst and Rev. Glen Ward officiating. All family and friends are welcome to join us as we remember the life of Mike.
Mike worked at Ace Products in Lineville for about 15 years. He then worked at Fort McClellan in Anniston until it closed in 1999. After leaving Ft. McClellan, he worked for the Clay County Commission Office as a maintenance worker until his retirement in 2016. In 2010, Mike ran for Sheriff of Clay County.
Mike was an avid fisherman and antique lover. Many times you would see him at the flea market where he loved to buy, sell, or trade. If he had something you wanted or needed, he would always give it to you without expecting anything in return. He loved working on his cabin and fishing in his pond at his house. His house was always open to family and friends and of course he had a meal waiting on you when you arrived.
He is preceded in death by his parents, William Junior Brown and Effie Brown Slick. He is survived by Schela Brown; 4 children: Jamie Taylor (Corey); Brandi Taylor (Josh); Brandon Brown (Jamie); and Cody Brown (Katie); 4 grandchildren: Benjamin Taylor, Amelia Brown (Melanie); Lexi Hoffman, Brett Shierling; one great granddaughter, Violet Garry Hoffman; two sisters: Jean Caldwell and Nina Brown; 4 brothers: Bill Brown (Judy), Johnny Brown (Pam), Eddie Brown (Darlene) and Roger Brown (Paula),plus many nieces and nephews and extended family.
