Uncle Dan, to hear the news of your passing was a terrible shock. I was in disbelief, my heart sank and tears began to flow. I remember the day you married Cam and I, you spoke of "keeping the weeds out of your garden", to keep close watch on that which is precious. I never forgot that and made it a part of what has kept Cam and I strong for nearly 14 years of marriage. The family dinners every Monday at your home on Iris Drive were always special, you and I sharing stories w/ the rest of the family and laughing the whole time. To listen to you share of your life coming to, and serving the Lord was nothing short of inspiring. The days in Bolivia and the work you and Sharon did there, to follow the direction of the Lord, words like Faithful and Courageous come into mind. I recall the youth group at Zion, you spearheaded the whole thing, from a very few kids to a multitude, it was a privilege to serve w/ you. The laughter and joy were always there, but most important how you shared the Love of God will never be forgotten. The support you offered will always stay in my thoughts, I can't remember a time Cam and I moved that you didn't show up to help. The love and support you gave my children, teaching, sharing, and loving them. Calling Aaron on a Saturday morning to come help you detail cars (in your famous Jericho Mile head band and Atlanta Falcon windbreaker) and paying for his time fills my heart w/ joy. When my Mom was sick and dying you were always there to pray and support. When Grampa Kroll was sick, I called you to come pray, you were there within minutes. Thank you for loving, it has taught me how to love a little bit better in my life. You will be very much missed, rest well faithful servant. Steve Plath

Dear Sharon and Family, We will greatly miss Dan. He was so caring and nurturing to us in our ministry and in personal lives. We had the proviledge of being in Mexico with him twice and enjoyed his company immensely. He also met with us when we were having marital trials and encouraged us to attend the retrovaille couples weekend, which proved to be life changing for us. What most struck me about Dan is how much he looked and acted like my biological Father. I told him one time about this and how I was able to see through him (Dan) what a good Father I could have had. What my Father might have been like if you knew the Love of God. You are all in our thoughts and prayers as you begin a new chapter in your lives without your beloved Father, Husband, brother and friend. We will miss him greatly. With Love, Cindy Hardy

We were so saddened to hear of Dan's passing. We had not seen him for some time, but had the pleasure of seeing him about a month ago at a group meeting. He was such a caring and loving person with the greatest smile. He counseled us before we were married and after helped us through some difficult times. He also was of great support to our daughter during some difficult times as a teenager. He will be missed by many. Our thoughts and prayers go out to your whole family. Bob and Judy

i remember with great fondness, Dan, he was the first and best of the Jr Hi and High School Pastors i had. i really enjoyed slamming sledge-hammers into old rusty cars for 50 cents for three swings, it was so much fun. He also taught me how to put my love for CHRIST into action. i think that he was around when the Fishermen were singing in old people's homes; youth prison camps and any church that would have us. He and your family have been prayed for on many days by me - now i will keep all of you in my prayers.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the Brown family. I know Dan is with the Lord, but the tears keep coming. Dan was an incredible man. I will always appreciate what he did for me in the Spanish Ministry at First Baptist Church. He counseled couples and I interpreted. I thought my marriage was pretty good prior to joining Dan in those counseling sessions. I learned so much more about being a better husband from him. Those teachings are being passed on to a multitude of people. Praise God. I will miss his smile and the joy he exuded. We all have been blessed by him.

Dan was many things to all of us: counsilor, minister and friend I know all this does not make a lot of since, what has happened, why and how, but Dan healed a lot of suffering in his day, in his counseling and his ministries, so much I believe the Lord took him with as little suffering as possible because of so many people he helped that suffered mentally as well as physcially. I am glad Kevin was with his dad, he is the first born and he was with family. I was with my dad when he passed. Marlies and I will be seeing you over the next few days to help support you and the family in what ever way we can.

I have to tell you what happened in Target this week----Dan would have loved the story--I was there getting invitations for a bridal shower and behind me I hear two ladies talking about Dan. I turned around and there was an old friend who introduced me to her friend. We all started sharing what God had done in our lives through Dan when another lady joined us. She had a friend who had an appointment to see Dan this week! As we all shared you realized just how much God had used Dan to change lives!! We parted feeling so blessed and knew we had made new friends in the body of Christ. Dan was so good at getting us to share and would have given us a thumbs up as many around us listened in!! Jeff and I thank him so very much for the Mexico Mission trips!! He was truely in his glory there and taught us sooo very much about loving those less fortunate than us. I'll never forget how he played his guitar and sang with such enthusiasm as well as taking us to the dumps and prison. When we got back we had youth, along with Josh, who wanted to know if we had homeless in Lodi. With Stella's help, Dan led us to start feeding the homeless by the old railroad station and then now by the new station. Jeff and I continue that ministry today as Dans heart for the unlovable spread over to our hearts. Any of the family who would like to join us would be welcome (Josh) as we are there the second Sunday of each month! We love you all and are praying for you knowing a big hole has been left but also knowing Dan is enjoying the presence of the Lord and that the Lord will comfort each of you in just the right way. In deepest sympathy and love, Jeff and Sandy Culbertson

To the family and friends of Dan. I am saddened by the loss of a truly gifted man who touch my life in many ways. I have known him off and on for more than 20 years. He was my counselor at Nautico and helped me both spiritually and emotionally. God gave him a great gift of sensitivity when it came to the needs of others. I pray that God's peace, that passes all understanding, shall be with you. There are no words to say but just invision being hugged by God and all those who knew and loved him. I look forward to seeing him again someday in heaven where the angels are greatly rejoicing his coming home Sincerely and with deepest regrets, Linda

The Brown Family, I just want to say what a kind man your husband/father was. I met the Brown family when I was a child playing soccer with Kevin and Mindy for the Lodi Competetive teams. Dan was always out helping and had such a beautiful spirit. Over the years I would still run into him around in Lodi and he would always ask about my family and what we were all up to, he made people feel special no matter who they were or how long it had been since he had seen you! We are sorry to hear of his passing, may you hold his spirit dear to you and keep faith that he will be in your hearts forever. Laura Dillingham-Misasi

This trip allowed us to get to know Dan on a more personal level. It was obvious the way he lived, and how he interacted with others that he had a passionate love for our Creator. We feel Honored and Blessed to have spent the last days of Dan's life with him!! From Ken personally, because of the talks we had, I believe God used Dan to open me up to other directions in my life to serve God. The seeds were planted with someone else several years ago. I believe God used Dan to open me up to expanding my service to the Lord and others. Ours Prayers go out to the Brown Family at this time. We rejoice in knowing that we will see Dan someday and we will worship our Creator together Forever. Ken and Cindy

Dan was such a wonderful blessing and influence in my life the past year. I saw him in counseling and appreciated his heart for Jesus. He was kind and loving and truthful. Dan counseled me through a custody battle and encouraged me to trust God. I saw him three times in June and he was so excited about that bike trip. Dan loved his family so much. I'm so sorry for your loss. PS: Dan told me that he knows one family in Woodland, Rick Drefs. Rondi is my daughter's speech therapist and my friend. It is a small world.

I know Dan is with Jesus but it still is hard for me to accept his passing. I figured he would always be there for me. I saw him for 2 years after my divorce and don't know how I would have survived without him. He always made me feel better and never dismissed my feelings. I know his work on earth is done and he left all of us more prepared to deal with life. I often think about what Dan Brown would think. I wished I could have told him how much of a difference he made in my life but I think he knew.

To the family of Dan Brown we are so sorry for your loss. I got to know Dan when he worked with the kids at Liberty High where I work, He was always so friendly and upbeat. This year my son David was having struggles with Middle school. I brought him in to see Dan and Dan would just talk to him about skateboarding, bike riding and grils. He took the time to take David out for ice cream and introduced him to the 180 Teen Center. Dan took such an interest in David, even calling just to check on how he was doing. When I told David of Dan's passing he just sat and cried for over a hour and me along with him and David asking why because Dan was so good. I told him that God needed Dan in Heaven and that Dan will always be in our hearts. It was a real blessing to know Dan and how he touched our lives. Tomi and David Hudmon

My sweet Uncle Dan, I do not know how to begin to describe how much you have meant to my life!! You have always been like a second father to me, and I am so grateful to the Lord to have been your neice. From the time I was a little girl, you have supported and encouraged me, always greeting me with a huge smile and hug, always asking about my life and always laughing with me about different things. I have so many special memories of all the holidays spent together, my first mission trips to Mexico, the vacations to San Diego in the summer, birthdays playing games as a family,your Donald Duck impersonations, you supporting me through the troubled teen years, and you doing my wedding to Steve and the beautiful things you talked about in the ceremony. I love looking back at our times as youth leaders at Zion, it was so much fun working with you and planning our events!! Those were times we really got to bond on a whole different level. Thank you for raising 3 kids who are like brothers and sister to me. Thank you for always being there for me no matter what and for being such an example of God's love. Thank you for the interest you took in Nathan and Claire and especially Aaron, for encouraging him in his Spanish and giving him a job helping you detail the cars. He loved it. Thank you for being a second grandpa to them too.... I already miss you so much and cant believe I am not going to see your smile every time I walk into church or come over to visit. I love you so much, and will look forward to seeing you greet me in Heaven some day with your big hug and happy smile. I am proud to have had you for my uncle! I love you, Cam

Years ago we went through some difficult times as a family and his wonderful friendship and counseling brought us back together as a family. His wonderful smile and encouraging words helped me through those days and years later whenever I would run into Dan, he always had a happy and thoughtful word for me.

Thank you for touching my life. You guided me, laughed with me, and let me cry on your shoulder for only 8 months, yet you had such an impact on my life. Thank you for being more than a counselor, but for being a dear friend. I am sad that I did not have the chance to share with you about our Alaska cruise. But, I know you know all about it now. There was a day on the cruise, as we entered Glacier Bay, and I sat peacefully on deck, just in awe of the beauty of the glaciers and the water and the sun, and thought "God IS great". I was surrounded by something that I could not understand; familiar, yet extraordinary. It was God. I knew it. You are so missed. In peace, Tamara

To The Dan Brown Family, I just heard of Dan's passing and was sadden by your loss. What a wonderful man, who gave so much love to the Lodi community. Dan was always welcomed to speak at our Parents Accepting Loss gathering during the Christmas holidays. He was always so easy to talk with and his smile---contagious. He shared his personal life and hard times, as we shared our loss and grief of our children. Dan reached out to many Lodi High students when my son, Mark Wheatley, died in a car accident 20 years ago. He asked me several times to share my grief with other highschool students, knowing it was healing me at the same time. Dan will be truly missed by many people. I celebrate his new life through my tears. God Bless you all.

Dan will always be remembered as a great man and a loving friend. I remember working with him over 30 years ago when he had just returned from his service as a missionary in Bolivia. We worked together at Nautico Ministries on School Street with Jerry Hackett and Arline Hillman. Over the years, we worked together in various locations as we grew into Nautico Counseling Center. I was blessed being with Dan on one of his Mexico Missions trip and saw his great love and compassion for the children and young people and loved hearing him sing in Spanish while playing his guitar. Dan became my counselor during a time of crisis in my family, and he became a great anchor of support and love for my children during that time and is still loved by them. The highlight of my time with Dan was working at Central Valley First Step at the former Doctors' Hospital. I was the Intervention Counselor for Chemically Dependent teens, and Dan was the Family Therapist. Dan deeply cared about all of our families there as he has hundreds of families since. He has always had an amazing capacity to care about the pain of others, while sustaining a presence of joy and love. Over the years, our paths have not crossed as often, but when they have, like others, I have always received a warm bear hug with the greatest of smiles and genuine regard for how I have been. I will miss running into him at coffee shops and speaking engagements around town. I love Dan, and I lift each of you family members up in prayer as you grieve, but also celebrate, his rich, full, vibrant, and joyous life. I love you all, Faye

What a blessing to know that you live on through Kevin, Mindy and Josh. I was able to let Sharon know how much she is being prayed for and how much we all care about her and the rest of the family. I don't know where to start, but I want to say that it was Dan Brown who helped me through a very difficult time in my life. Because of his example, I learned what a loving father should be like. I knew I never had that in my life. Because of his concern and care, both of my children just broke hearing the news of his passing. Randall taught Josh drum lessons. Trina attended his youth meetings at his home. They will never forget the love of God that radiated from Dan's heart. If we could all describe Dan in one word, it would be LOVE. Thank you Lord for the time you gave all of us with Dan. Hold his family in your loving arms and give them peace that will surpass their understanding. Mend their broken hearts with the love that you filled Dan with.

The first time we met Dan was at Vinewood Communtiy Church, an evening service. We were new to the town and new to the church. Dan was talking about the minintry of Nautico and his enthusiasm, and the vision of Nautico caught our attention. That began a relationship of the Whites and the Browns about 30 years ago. Many, many pageants at Christmas time as our kids grew up. Dan was always a man of passion and compassion, in what ever he did. Always a smile. So much to be missed. So sorry Sharron and kids.

To Mrs. Brown, Kevin, Mindy and Josh, we just want to say how sad we are to hear of Coach Browns passing. Dan was my soccer Coach when I was in the 5th grade. Our Nautico team was not only the best Rec league team but we also entered tournaments with traveling teams and actually beat many of them as well. Coach was always making it so much fun for us, from van rides to the tournaments to the eating of the live Goldfish when we won. I can still see the goldfish swimming in a container on the dashboard. He took us to see "Victory" at the Sunset theatre as a team and made us all feel we could be Champions. He took a big slow kid like me and made me believe I was important back there at fullback, ready to slide tackle anything that moved. I have always enjoyed talking to him over the years and seeing him at the gym. I loved his stories about some of his long bike rides and how he always treated others with respect. He always had a smile and warm greeting for you. It doesn't seem fair when things like this happen, but I just know there will be a special place for him up in Heaven. Greg
