He was just one of those "swell" guys who seemed to always be around. As the Bible Quizzing ministry grew he was selected to assist Brother Marvin Walker in reading the quizzes at national tournaments because they had similar sounding voices and Mid-Western accents. Any "kids" who grew up around Bible Quizzing (and the adults who used to be those kids) knew Lonnie Brown well.

My own kids all have the ubiquitous "I'm Down with Lonnie Brown" t-shirts that were being sold as a fund raiser for the Browns and to lift Bother Lonnie's spirits.
