Robert C. Brown

Robert Clyde Brown, 86 of Charlotte, a guy who always said, “I’ll do it myself” and his family affectionately calls “a stubborn ole bastard” died November 8, 2020. He was headstrong with a soft heart, willing to take on tasks for others as well as accomplishing his list. He loved hunting and fishing and three-wheeling with his Kellogg buddies. Bob was a homebody. He was proud of his property, including the barns that he built, his house and his land. He enjoyed his building and refinishing of farm equipment and many other projects. He enjoyed his years at Kellogg as a machine operator. Bob was so proud of his family, and loved to share memories of his sons’ antics.
Bob is survived by his wife, Susan Myers; and his step-children, Keven Myers and August Mellios; ten grandchildren; 15 great-grandchildren; one brother, Dean (Sheila) Brown of Olivet. He was preceded in death by his parents; sons, Steve Brown, Stan Brown, Donn Brown; grandson, Chad Brown; and brother, Larry Brown.
