August 7, 1960 — January 31, 2026

Susan Brown, passed away on January 31, 2026, at the age of 65. She was born on August 7, 1960, in a world that would come to be enriched by her kindness and unwavering spirit.

Susan's early years were shaped by her loving parents, Dennis Christopher and Donna Jean Osborn, who instilled in her the values of hard work, compassion, and resilience. These qualities accompanied her throughout her life, especially during her service in the Air Force, where she demonstrated her dedication to her country and commitment to serving others.

In her personal life, Susan was the beloved wife of Paul Brown, with whom she shared countless adventures and beautiful memories.
