Asheville – Robert "Bob" Jerald Brown, 74 passed away unexpectedly at his residence on Wednesday, April 24, 2013.
Bob was born in Chehalis, Washington to the late Richard and Mary Belle Metelmann Brown. He was also preceded in death by a brother Bill Brown.
Bob grew up and lived many years in the Bay area of San Francisco. He and his wife, Maggie Graham moved to Asheville 8 years ago and opened Fast Frame.
Bob is survived by his wife, Maggie Graham and his three children, David Brown, Kristen Brown and Bill Brown and seven grandchildren.
No services are scheduled at this time and Groce Funeral Home at Lake Julian is assisting the family.
I am shocked and saddened by Bob’s passing. He was a very creative, kind and friendly guy. He did some great work for Mission Foundation over the past eight years. We will greatly miss him. Our prayers are with Maggie and the family.
I was so sad to get the call about Bab’s passing just after having had such a wonderful neighborly visit with Bob and Maggie that very evening. Both were so welcoming to my family and I into our wonderful neighborhood. Our thoughts, prayers and willingness to help however we can are for you Maggie and our condolences to Bob’s whole family.
Maggie, I was so sorry to read that Bob had passed. It seems like just yesterday when you were moving here and we were doing the walk-through for your new home. I have thought of you so both so often when I look at your beautiful birds and the Frog on the Calla Lily you emailed me. Know my thoughts and prayers are with you at this time.
I have such fond memories of my time spent with Maggie and Bob when I visited in 1990. Bob was the first ‘real’ American I had met and I will never forget being on the back of his motor bike for hours as he showed me some beautiful places. Maggie, I know Bob and my beautiful Dad will be looking after you from above. My heart breaks for you but know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.
