Daniel F. Brown
November 18, 1938 – November 23, 2024
Daniel F. Brown, a lifelong resident of Espanola, passed away peacefully on November 23, 2024, at the age of 87. Danny was born on November 18, 1938, in Espanola and spent his life as a beloved member of the community. Known for his skill as a licensed mechanic and repairman, Danny’s passion for tinkering and fixing was matched by his generosity and dedication to helping others.
Danny is survived by his loving wife of 31 years, Mary, with whom he shared a cherished life at Clear Lake. He was a devoted father to Charlene, Rob (Dawna), and Don (Sheryl), and a proud grandfather to Arielle (Andrew), Matthew (Darion), Max, Danielle, Samantha, and Alex. He also leaves behind great-grandchildren Hallie and Ian.
Predeceased by his parents, Fabiola and Alfred Brown, and his sister Jacqueline Grodesky (Peter), Danny will be deeply missed by his siblings Rochelle Mulholland (Geoff, predeceased), Anne Gibson (George, predeceased), Paul Brown (Rolande), Lucille Noble, and Kathleen Hore (Don). His many nieces and nephews will forever remember him with love.
Danny’s passion for repairing vintage cars and his welcoming spirit left a lasting impression on his family and friends. He was often surrounded by those who enjoyed his company as much as his skill. His contributions to the Espanola community will not be forgotten.
