George David Brown Jr.

George David Brown, Jr., age 78, of Alliance, passed away peacefully Monday, March 18, 2019 at The Haven in Beloit.

Dave or “Brownie” as friends referred to him was born September 10, 1940, in Alliance, Ohio, to his parents, George David and Mary Ellen (Rennels) Brown Gulland.

A 1958 graduate of Alliance High School, Dave proudly served in the United States Army during a time of war. He was later employed by Transue and Williams, and eventually retired from the City of Alliance Water Works Department after 29 years of service.

Dave lived his entire life in Alliance and enjoyed his time outdoors in the park system. He relished his time, win or lose, watching the Cleveland Browns and spent his later year’s playing cards with friends and family.

Survivors include his daughters, Chris (George) Promenschenkel, Robin (Bob) Bisesi and Heidi (Chad) McClung; along with three grandchildren; brother, Franklin; and a sister, Sue.

Preceding him in death were his parents.

The family would like to thank Shelia and Tim Pendleton of The Haven for their Christian ministry and their wonderful care and compassion for Dave for the past nine months. The family would also like to extend their gratitude to Alliance Hospice.

Following Dave’s wishes, there will be no services and he will be laid to rest at Fairmount Memorial Park.
