Donald Eugene ‘Donnie’ Brown, Jr.

March 20, 2025

Mr. Donald Eugene “Donnie” Brown, Jr. was a beloved member of the community who sadly passed away at the age of 45 on March 20, 2025, in Pensacola, Florida. Originally from Pensacola, he had made his home in Flomaton for the last four and a half years. Donnie will be remembered by his family and friends for his warm spirit and the joy he brought to those around him. His passing leaves a significant void in the hearts of all who knew him.

Mr. Brown was a man full of life and excitement. He loved to spend his weekends hunting in the woods, fishing by the lake, and crafting beautiful items in his workshop. His vibrant personality drew people in, and he enjoyed every moment watching wrestling matches, cheering for his favorite wrestlers. Fireworks were another passion of his; he loved the colors and sounds lighting up the night sky. Most importantly, Mr. Brown cherished time with his family, creating memories that they would hold dear forever.

He is preceded in death by his parents, Donald Eugene (Carol Ard) Brown.

He is survived by his two sons, Draven Brown, of Lillian, AL; Gabriel “Gabe” Brown, of Lillian, AL; sister, Monica McLain, of Atmore, AL; friend, Amber Munro, of Flomaton, AL; friends, Kevin (Haley) Walker, of Jay, FL; extended family, John McLain, numerous cousins and friends.

Visitation will be held, Tuesday, March 25, 2025, from 6-8 p.m. at Petty Funeral Homes.
