Robert Brown Obituary

Robert Leon “Snake Man”  Brown was born on May 1, 1967, to the late Ezekiel and Sallie Lee Brown. On Tuesday, April 7, 2026, God in His infinite wisdom called Robert home to eternal rest.

Robert graduated from Conway High School in 1986, where he is still known as one of the best Linebackers on the football team.

Robert grew up in Jerusalem Chapel Missionary Baptist Church, where his grandfather was the pastor. He received Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior as a young adult. Robert started working as a bus driver during his last 2 years of high school. After high school, he attended Virginia State University. Robert drove trucks across the country for over twenty years. He ended his work career at Metglas in Conway, South Carolina. Robert had a great love for cutting grass, which was very apparent from the way he kept his own yard.

Robert was joined in holy matrimony to Florence Chadman on  August 19, 2022.

He was preceded in death by his grandparents, his parents, Ezekiel and Sallie Lee Brown; his son, Michael Myers; a brother, Sylvester Spain; three sisters, Earlene Keel, Sallie Sparkman, and Sharonda Linen; two nephews, Cornelius Dease and Horace Brown.
