Remembering Kevin Delane Brown

 

Kevin Delane Brown, age 65, of Dubach, LA, was born December 4, 1959 to Norman “Shorty” Brown and Annie Mae Havins Brown. He was the youngest of seven children.  Kevin passed from this life on Tuesday, February 18, 2025 at his home in Dubach surrounded by his family.

Kevin is preceded in death by his parents; his wife Barbara Ann Sisemore; his sisters: Betty Lee Brown, Daniel and Catherine Louise Brown Durrett; his brothers: Norman Eugene, Clyde Lavon, and James Terral Brown.

Those left to cherish his memory are, his daughter, Melissa Brown Arrant; Grandson, Wyatt Arrant; chosen son, Joshua Butler Ratcliff and Kelsey; grandson, Tristin, and Granddaughter, Phoenix; his brother Charles Quain Brown and wife Dorothy; his brother- in-law John Henry Daniel; sisters-in- law Jean, Ann, and Liz Brown. He is also survived by numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, family and friends.

Kevin was a graduate of Dubach High School. He was employed with Pabco and Willamite, but being behind the wheel of an 18-wheeler was his true joy. His work took him places he’d never been before, and breath-taking scenery filled his days on his long hauls. When Kevin wasn’t at work, he loved hunting and fishing, and was a member of Crossroad Hunting Club. He loved working in his shop, that he had designed and built himself. It wasn’t unusual to find him tinkering on his Jeep inside that shop when time allowed. He found time for his four- legged fur babies; his dachshund’s, Lucy, Rowdy, Sissy and Rocky.

Visitation is scheduled for Saturday, March 8, 2025, from 1:30-2:30 PM at Dubach First Baptist Church gymnasium. A graveside memorial service will follow at the Henry Cemetery in Hico, La. at 3:00 PM. Officiating the service will be his nephew, Bro. Roger Brown, and lifelong friend, Bro Ricky Houck. The family offers a special thank you to lifelong friend, Bro. Reagan Colvin, who was with Kevin during his last days; and to his special niece, Tammy Cark.  The family wishes to express their appreciation for the services offered by, Owens Memorial Chapel Funeral Home of Ruston, LA; Louisiana Hospice & Palliative Care of Monroe, La.; and hospice nurses: Rebecca, Nicole, and Angela.

Donations can be made in Kevins name to the Dubach Senior Food Pantry.
