The family of Marine Corps Veteran Charles Burhl Brown has invited the Patriot Guard Riders to honor their hero for his service and sacrifice to his country. It will be our privilege to do so.
Charles Brown proudly served from 1953 to 1957 with the US Marine Corps where he received the National Defense Service Medal, Korean Service Medal, United Nations Service Medal, and Good Conduct Medal.
Charles worked as an inspector for a fastener company for over 30 years. He enjoyed spending time in the garden, planting and caring for his roses.
Charles Brown is survived by wife Rosalie, 2 siblings, sons Charles and Harold, 5 grandchildren, and 5 great grandchildren.
