Her life leaves behind a lasting and tender memory in the hearts of her family and all who knew her.

Mamie Lurlene Brown, a daughter of Camilla, Georgia, was born on January 20, 1938, in Camilla and departed this life on September 24, 2026, at Phoebe Putney Memorial Hospital. Her life stretched across generations and was marked by warmth, conversation, humor, and the familiar joys that make a home and a family feel complete.

She graduated with the Class of 1959 from Camilla Consolidated School, a milestone that remained part of the story of her life. In 1963, she was united in marriage to Charlie Brown, and to this union two children were born. She also fellowshipped with Beulah Missionary Baptist Church, carrying with her a spirit of connection and fellowship.

Man that is born of a woman is of few days and full of trouble.Seeing his days are determined, the number of his months are with thee, thou hast appointed his bounds that he cannot pass; O that thou wouldest hide me in the grave, that thou wouldest keep me secret, until thy wrath be past, that thou wouldest appoint me a set time, and remember me! If a man die, shall he live again? all the days of my appointed time will I wait, till my change come.Thou shalt call, and I will answer thee: thou wilt have a desire to the work of thine hands.  Job 14:1; 5; 13-15.

Her memory will be cherished by those who remain to carry her love forward. She is survived by her children, Jeffery Williams of Camilla, Georgia, Charles Brown of Hampton, Virginia, and Shinita Brown of Camilla, Georgia. She is also survived by her sisters, Angela Banks of Camilla, Georgia, and Hurlaine Berryhill (Timothy) of New Orleans, Louisiana; her brothers, Wallace Williams of Camilla, Georgia, and Terry Williams (Dorothy) of Levittown, Pennsylvania; and the many loved ones whose lives were brightened by her presence and her enduring spirit.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Charlie Brown, and by her parents, Willie Williams and Bertha Williams.

Her life leaves behind a lasting and tender memory in the hearts of her family and all who knew her.
