Huyon Alexander Brown

Huyon “Manty” Brown was born on January 22, 1967, in May Pen, Clarendon, Jamaica to parents Raphael Brown (preceded) and Beverlee Brown. Manty started his early childhood education at Denbigh Primary School, and later attended Osbourne Store All Age School, Clarendon, Jamaica. Manty entered the workforce in his late teens, and worked with a local construction company. After several years, Manty got the opportunity to travel and work in the United States of America in October 1990. While living abroad, Manty met, fell in love, and got married to Vallaire and the union produced three wonderful children, Jamal O’Neal Brown, Jamontie Christian Brown, and Jasmine Alexandrea Brown, and included in this beautiful blended family are Ladoise Veronique Brazzeal, Bianca Nechelle Rose, and Jawayne Devon Stoddart, along with his grandson, Khing Jamal Scott Brown. Manty loved and adored all of his children and grandson.

Throughout his lifetime, Manty worked tirelessly at multiple jobs. He was known as a jack of all trades. Manty worked at a limousine company for a while, and was recognized as one of their top drivers; he returned to his original love of construction for a few years; and most recently worked at a hardware store as a delivery personnel until his untimely passing.

Manty had a sense of humor, he was extremely funny, and he loved his mother and four sisters endlessly. Manty was very sociable and jovial to everyone he met or worked alongside. He had a distinct presence that would capture his audience's attention. In his pastime, Manty enjoyed playing football (soccer) from a very young age, riding four wheelers at times, and cooking delicious Sunday dinners with a blend of Jamaican recipes for his family.

As a child, Manty worshipped at the Church of God of Prophecy, May Pen, Clarendon, Jamaica, where he actively participated in Sunday School. As he got older Manty became a man of faith, and came to the realization that with God all things are possible. Manty was a regular attendee of Southwest Baptist Church, Houston, Texas. He loved unconditionally, and he loved the Lord with all his heart.

Huyon/Manty/Rambo will be remembered for his kindness, his caring nature, and his love for his children, grandchild, mother, sisters, extended family members and friends. He loved with his smile, laughter, conversations, and lived a full life sharing his gifts and talents.

Manty’s passing comes with great sadness, he will be dearly missed, and his passing will be felt deeply by loved ones, and the family and friends who knew him best. Huyon/Manty/Rambo is survived by his wife, Vallarie; his children Jamal, Jamontie, Jasmine, Ladoise, Bianca, and Jawayne; his grandson, Khing Jamal, his mother, Beverlee Brown; his sisters, Maxan, Anna, Deaneth, and Kerrian (Kirk); his nephews, Ian/Antwang, LeAnthony, Kesnor, and Kavani; aunts, uncles, cousins, and other extended family members. Preceding him in joining the Lord was his father, Raphael Brown, and his brother, Ian “Denny” Chang.
