Nita graduated from Macon County High School in 1965, where she then attended college at Georgia Southwestern State University. Nita loved and worked in Hardware in Montezuma and Warner Robins Supply. Later, Nita worked for Bird Eye Foods and Allen’s where she was a purchasing agent 16 years before retiring to be with her husband, Jerry Brown Sr. Nita loved her family and loved cooking for them. She and Jerry traveled and fished the Flint River every chance they could.

After Jerry’s passing, she moved to Pell City, AL to be closer to family, where God opened doors to new friends and happiness- learning to play Canasta and other card games with “her girls”.
