Donald David Brown

Mr. Donald David Brown passed away Thursday, July 23, 2026, at Flowers Hospital in Dothan. He was 74 years old.

A memorial service will be held Sunday, July 26, 2026, at 2:00 PM at Church on Boll Weevil Circle, 2017 Boll Weevil Circle Enterprise, with Pastor Dave Mason officiating.

Don was born June 25, 1952, in Texas to the late Gerald and Marion Ennis Brown. In addition to his parents, he is preceded in death by his brother, Harold Bruce Brown, and nephews, Michael Brown and Jeremy Brown.

Don first and foremost loved his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, and he was a faithful member of Church on Boll Weevil Circle. A true child at heart, he found immense joy crawling around in the floor playing with his grandchildren, nieces, and nephews. Many would say he “never grew up” and all children loved him for it.

He worked for 36 years in automotive body repair, a career he thoroughly enjoyed. Outside of work he enjoyed being outdoors whether it be camping, whitewater rafting, or just spending time in nature. Don never took life too serious. He always said “Safety 3rd...trust me!” He had a way of making everyone laugh and smile. His love was felt by anyone whom he held close in his heart.

Survivors include his wife, Tracy Brown; children, Melinda Gilmore (Robert) of DeLand, Florida, and Daniel Brown (Heather), Makiah Brown, Donald “Hoss” Brown, David “Jackson” Brown, and Bryson DeLuca, all of Enterprise, Alabama; siblings, Charlie Brown (Ellen) of Virginia, Mary Brown of Pennsylvania, Gerald Ray Brown (Teresa) of Florida, Donna Allison (Danny) of North Carolina, and Brian Brown (Davonna) of Kentucky; four grandchildren, Conner Gilmore, Brayden French, Khloe Brown, and Mason Brown; and many, many nieces and nephews.
