So sad to hear of Herman’s passing. I worked with him at Twin Ridge. Great guy, he will be missed! Sympathies to the family
For 22 years he was not only my pastor, he was the father I never had, as mine had died when I was five. He was a great leader; a great friend; he taught me how to respect life at a time when I didn’t care about life itself; he was the grandfather to my girls.. he was a great man and will be greatly missed. l love you Pastor Brown …

We are saddened by the news of Pastor Brown’s passing. We remember the good times at Mt Carmel under his leadership. Through his ministry we grew in grace and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and for that we are forever grateful. May God bless, keep and comfort the Brown family. In Jesus name, Amen!

“I’m gonna wear a diamond garment
In that new Jerusalem
I’m gonna walk the streets of gold
It’s the homeland of the soul…”
