Jonathan’s smile could light up any soul. His energy and tenacity was infectious beyond measure. He never met a stranger and could make you laugh until your sides hurt. To know him was to love him; to meet him, an encounter you would never forget. He loved his son Logan with every fiber of his being. He loved football and was extremely athletic, starting taekwondo as a toddler. He loved the gym and strived to stay strong. Most of all, he loved his mom and dad who gave him life, and were there for him always. Growing up alongside his older brother Jeremy, there was never a dull moment. There was lots of laughs between the two and a bond that could never be broken. Jonathan loved life and strived to be successful. He wanted more than anything to be a good father and make his pops proud. Jonathan struggled for many years, but his pain is now gone. He fought the good fight and now he can rest.
He is preceded in death by his grandmother, Ruby M. Brown; his grandfather Billy O’Dell Brown; and his grandfather John Michael Barrett Sr.
He is survived by his father Bill Brown of Maumelle, his mother Michele Barrett-Crossley (Susanne) of Cabot, his son Logan Cooper Brown of Little Rock; and one brother Jeremy Barrett of Cabot, Arkansas, grandmother Patricia Barrett of Jacksonville, along with countless friends and extended family.
