He served the community on the Planning Commision for several years. In his young adulthood he enjoyed rodeoing frequently with his friends and family. He was an avid sportsman and enjoyed fishing, hunting and enjoyed spending time with his family and friends at his camps in Sikes, LA and Toledo Bend. He enjoyed attending church and fellowshiping with his church family. He was very proud his ancestors were the founders of Sikes, LA and his father (T.J. Brown) and his uncle (Harold Brown) were part of the original Borden’s Milk and Ice Cream brought to CENLA.
Terry was tenacious with everything he laid his hands to do. He helped support people in need of work in the community and enjoyed seeing his family and friends become successful.
