Barbara Stephanie Brown passed away on Saturday, January 7, 2017, after a valiant fight with breast cancer. She was born in Escondido, California in 1957 and the family moved to Burlington in the early 60's.
Barbara attended Blessed Sacrament School, Cummings High School and was an Elon University graduate. Two of her career paths led her to work for the Alamance County Sheriff's Office and Graham Housing Authority.
Barbara will always be remembered for her work with the Alamance Conservatives. Through her efforts she helped establish the Alamance County Tea Party and the Alamance Republican Women. Barbara worked assiduously in all facets of these organizations. She was a cornerstone of the conservatives and will be greatly missed.
Barbara is survived by her mother, Gloria Brown; brothers, David Brown and Paul Brown (Mary); nephew, Mitchell Brown; aunts Maria Gomez and Bevelyn Rivera; and her beloved dog, Winston.
The Brown Family wants to thank Lorraine Ryan for being the advocate for "Team Barbara." We extend a warm and grateful thank you to Hospice of Alamance-Caswell for the care given to Barbara during her last days.
