Ronald Brown

Devoted son of the late George and Dorothy Brown.

Loving Brother of George Brown, Dot Brown, Karen Kutassy and the late Steve Brown.

Cherished Uncle of Five and Great Uncle of Many.

Also predeceased by his beloved dog "Jack".

He was always there when any family member needed him. He was kind and compassionate.

Ron received certificates of recognition for 25 years of commitment to the Staten Island Zoo Docent Program.

His time at the Zoo produced many enduring friendships.

His career included being a Bank Advisor in Manhattan. And that gave him joy.

Cancer has no conscience, morals, laws or discrepancy. The only thing it knows is destruction. It will take you down lower and lower until you are not you anymore. It drags you to the bottom, a place where you don’t want to be. You will ask yourself, “ Am I in Hell? The pain is so excruciating. What did I do in my life- time to deserve this? This is not real.” Wake-up Ron. Give it your best fight. Put your boxing gloves on and fight, fight, fight. Punch, kick, holler and give it your all. You are not a loser, you are a winner.

When your fight is gone with no fuel left and you can’t fight no more the angels are hovering and will know when to take you. They know when your tank is empty. The hot coals have turned cold. No more reserve. You are gone.

Another journey begins. A journey of divinity and life! A new life of purity and light. You followed telepathic instructions to go toward the light. You will find peace, tranquility, warmth and delight.

Your guardian angels guided you on a tour to Christ. Warmth and love enveloped you in his sight. I am home now, where I need to be. Thank- you Jesus for taking away my nausea and pain. My body was broken and you put me back together again. I am grateful that I met you in the end.

My family was waiting in the wings aware of when my last breath would be. Their bright lights all aglow, ready to welcome me. I am surrounded by tiny little lights. One light is Jack, my beloved dog and dearest canine friend. His light twinkles so bright. He is ecstatic to see me again. He is wagging his tail and panting, while prancing around on a fluffy cloud. He wants me to pet him just like it used to be. It’s been too long. We are finally together again. Another light is a twin light that is two lights together. Its mom and dad hand in hand, as bright aglow as can be. They are welcoming me into the spirit world where they will comfort me. No more nausea or pain. I am spry and youthful again. This beautiful place is definitely Heaven. Then I see the oldest of lights that has a special sparkle. It’s beckoning me to it. Aunt Terri with a glow of wisdom that she has earned over the years. She is no longer old. Her hair has the shine and fullness as in her youth. Her spirit signals me to peer into her eyes. She said, “Thank-you for finding me lying on the floor alone at my death.” Shooting stars, a spectacular display will be sent to earth to show you my appreciation. The display will be like no other. Sparks will fly across the sky in a glorious colorful formation. After the display Aunt Terri and I will fly around the clouds as if we were children again. Love and laughter spread throughout the land.

The last spirit of this encounter is Stevie who passed on long ago when he was too young. He has been waiting patiently for my time to come. His light is dancing around and blinking with glee. Whole again with no regrets of the way he used to be. There are no worries or concerns in Heaven so he tells me. We can be brothers again and be a team.

Thank-You Jesus for ending my dreadful feat. I am home where I need to be. I followed the light just as you told me. I am home and as peaceful as can be.
