Charles Brown
In Loving Memory
It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Charles Brown Jr., who left us on February 9, 2025, at the age of 49. He was a beloved son, brother, father, and friend, deeply cherished by all who knew him.
Born on July 27, 1975, in Little Rock, AR, Charles was always the biggest presence in any room, filling it with laughter and joy. His larger-than-life personality and infectious spirit endeared him to many. A skilled mechanic, he owned and operated Charlie’s Mechanic Shop, where he worked on a wide variety of vehicles—from diesel trucks to standard and mid-sized cars. His dedication to his craft and his customers was unmatched, and he took great pride in his work.
Charles is survived by his loving daughter, Miriam Brown, and his grandchildren, Karston Owney, Khe’lyse Owney, Dha’kharii Sykes, and Dha’marii Sykes. He is also survived by his mother, Myra Holt; his father, Charles Brown Sr.; stepfather, Darrell Holt; sisters, Tonya Allen, Cornella Matthews, Shamika Vurger, Stephanie Vurger, and Angela Brown; and brothers, Gregory Chisley, Joseph Chisley, and Charleston Brown. He leaves behind a legacy of love and laughter that will be remembered fondly.
A visitation in honor of Charles’ life will be held on Friday, February 14th, from 3 PM to 6 PM at Griffin Leggett Healey & Roth Funeral Home, located at 5800 W 12th Street, Little Rock, AR 72204. In honoring his memory, there will not be an order of services, allowing friends and family to gather freely and share in their love for him.
Charles Brown Jr. will be deeply missed, but his spirit will live on in the hearts of all who were fortunate enough to know him. May he rest in peace.
