Kelvin Brown March 11, 1956 – January 27, 2019 Share this obituary Sign Guestbook| Send Private Condolences Kelvin Brown was born on March 11, 1956 in New York City to the late Howard Brown, Sr. and Pauline Brown. He was raised on 118th Street, Building 277 which he loved with a passion. He received his education in New York City Public Schools, P.S. 181, Wadleigh Junior High and Benjamin Franklin High School.

Kelvin worked at Robert Silman for thirtythree years as a draftman. At a very young age he joined St. John’s Pentecostal Church under Bishop Lenora Smith and then Bishop James I. Wilkins who he loved wholeheartedly. His favorite song was, “We are Soldiers in the Army” which his brothers Howard and Lennard would sing together.

One thing for sure Kelvin loved basketball, there wasn’t one nephew that could beat him at the game he loved so well. He taught them how to stay on top of the game without losing. Kelvin was good at giving the coat off his back to anyone in need.

Very early the morning of January 27, 2019 the Lord called his name and he answered by giving his biggest gift, his heart to God and went on high to be with the Lord; saying good-bye to all that he loved. In departing he leave to cherish always in memories: his mother, Pauline Brown Noble; his sisters, oldest sister, Elaine Smith and her husband, James Smith, Sr., Diane Womack, Ivy Adamson and her husband, Grantley Adamson, and Vera Kee; one brother, Thomas Noble and his wife, Norca; his children, Dawnay Brown, Kelvin Brown, Jr., Kelvin Brown III, LaRonda and Alaya Brown; one grandson, Josiah his pride and joy who he loved so much; and his loving lifelong friend, Gary Hammond; and a host of other family and friends.
