Yazoo City, MS

Our brother was one of the most unusual human beings you would have
ever met, Cowboy Sean Brown. He has gone to be with his mother.
Sean was born on May 29, 1960 to the late Asa Lee Douglas and Samuel
L. Brown Jr. and grew up with two siblings. Sean was born a Catholic and
attended Catholic Schools in Chicago, Il until his return to Yazoo City, MS
during his middle school years. After graduating from High School, he
served 4 years in the United States Army. After military life he decided he
wanted to be a true Cowboy. He went to Palmer, Alaska where he took
guest on guided horseback tours and became a good friend to Country Star
singer Jewel. He worked the Valdez Oil Spill in Alaska and was able to ride
rodeo with the famous Charlie Sampson Rodeo Bull Rider. After riding he
then went on and Studied Farrier Science at Oklahoma Horseshoeing
School in Purcell, OK.
After returning from Oklahoma he moved to Columbus, Georgia where he
drove horse and buggy for the downtown tourist a little over a year. He
returned back to Mississippi and found his cowgirl (Cynthia Woods) and
they set off to Cody, Wyoming where He led tours in the mountains for
Hidden Creek outfitters. After falling down a cliff and breaking his tail bone
on a tour, he went on to attend Sage Truck Driving School in Billins, MT.
and drove Trucks for Swift Trucking in Iowa, until he returned to Yazoo City,
Ms.
In May of 2024 he moved to Columbus, GA to be closer to his two sisters
and went faithfully every day to assist his great nephew with his Athletic
Training Facility. In June of 2025, he decided he wanted to fix his mother’s
home that was damaged from the storm and returned to Yazoo.
Sadly, God saw he was getting weary, and did what he thought best. He
came and stood beside him, and whispered, “Come and Rest.” He bade
no one a last farewell not even a good-bye. He was gone before we knew it
and only God knows why. He departed this life for his heavenly reward
August 30, 2025.
