BROWN, Ivor Lincoln  -  Born in Seaford Town, Jamaica, West Indies to Edward Brown (Braun) and Ethel Topper, with siblings, Violet, Rudy, Eustace, Ivy, Bernard, Hubert (toddler death), and Ruth. oved to Canada in 1957 when he was 21.

Worked in London, Ontario as a male nurse, then obtained his Bachelor of Theology in Alberta, worked as a minister in Ottawa and Brantford for a few years, later worked at Henderson (now Juravinski) Hospital as an orderly, then as a porter at Hamilton General Hospital, eventually becoming head porter before his retirement.

He was a deacon for years at the Hamilton Mountain Seventh-day Adventist (SDA) church.

He loved to sing and did so often in public and alone. He was the family's genealogist, researching the immigration of his European ancestors to Jamaica.

His lifetime of family research resulted in a 500 page book of his findings.

Once he retired, he moved to the town of Cobalt and joined the Old Age Club where he was frequently asked to sing.

Attended the Haileybury SDA church, enjoying the fellowship there and delivering sermons (and eulogies) when he had opportunity. His heartfelt singing frequently moved the listener to tears (e.g. "Ten Thousand Angels" - Ray Overholt).

He was a loving husband to Joan (who survives him) and kind father to Trevor. Ivor will be missed.
