Mr. Clifford Earl Brown died peacefully at home in Wellton, AZ March 20, 2022 at the age of 94 years. Clifford was born July 31, 1927 in Kimball, NE while his Mother Louise was visiting her sister from Kalispell, MT where she resided with Clifford's father Lorren Brown and two older siblings of Cliff; Harold Wayne & Lois Maxine.
Most knew Cliff as a hard worker, always finding something that needed to be done. He always balanced his spirituality, family life, and careers with outstanding grace. He started his spiritual life early being baptized as one of Jehovah's Witnesses at the age of 11 in 1938. Getting expelled from school for not saluting the flag, he went to work with his older brother driving a skid steer logging in Northern Montana. At age 18 he was sentenced to three years in prison for not participating in WWII. The war ended six months later and he was able to return to Montana. He married Mary Ann Rebecca Pewitt in May of 1947 and started his family life. He continued to progress spiritually and had many privileges throughout the years such as; becoming a servant in the Congregation in 1955, he enjoyed giving many discourses at assemblies, regional & even international conventions. He always enjoyed bringing Gods Word to life. Let it Live! was one of the things he always repeated. In 1960 he moved the family to Olympia, WA. In 1977 he enjoyed the privilege to be a substitute Circuit Overseer & Custodian at the WA Assembly Hall for ten years. Also, he served on the trucking & equipment committee and was used as a driver in the trucking department all over the Northwest & West Coast; all while raising a family (with a disabled child) and working to support his family financially. Cliff spent the last 30 yrs in Wellton, AZ. Serving Jehovah and his Congregation until death. We know Jehovah yearns to bring back all our loved ones. May we all look forward to that day!
