Mr. Brown was a member of the original Lamarville Neighborhood Watchmen, a group of fathers that looked out for each other's homes, families, and our block. His family is my family. His children are bonus siblings to me and my sister. He was a cool dude and a very cool dad. My heart goes out to Mrs. Margaret Brown. Near or far, the Knight Family has your back. We love you all.
