Evan Eugene Brown

Evan Eugene Brown, 44, of Washington, Utah passed away on June 14, 2024 at his home. 

Evan was born on July 10, 1979 in Cherry Point, North Carolina to Eugene Brown and Vicci Wiggins and grew up in Booneville, Mississippi. He graduated from Booneville High School and attended Northeast Mississippi Community College. 

At age 19, Evan dedicated two years of service as a missionary for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in the Spokane, Washington mission.

Evan met the love of his life, Alisha, and the two were married for time and all eternity on August 11, 2001 in the St. Louis Temple. 

Evan was a dedicated husband, father, son, brother, and friend. He loved his family immensely and they are everything to him. He was most proud of his son, Ethan, and he has always been his greatest accomplishment on this earth. Evan worked hard for his family. His main profession was in sales/leadership and he excelled in this industry throughout the years.

We will greatly miss his sense of humor, love, joy and laughter he brought to us. He was a huge fan of the Mississippi State Bulldogs and the Iowa Hawkeyes. All who knew him quickly found this out. Evan has a deep love of his Heavenly Father and his family who love him greatly and will miss him forever.
